The thing is, as humans we can learn how to care for animals before we take them on.
True.
Lots of dog owners send their dogs to be trained though, but dont get trained themselves, so the dog does GREAT with the trainer. Then good with the owner, until the owner gets negligent, then the dog training short circuited for a few minutes.
You specifically cite dogs on roadsides. That isnt an untrained dog problem. That is an untrained human problem.
Exactly, this whole conversation is about people who don’t train their dogs. Most of them because they can’t be bothered to learn how to.
Yesterday I saw a man with three large husky type dogs. He had them on the traffic side of the pavement and they were pulling him in both directions. At least he had them on a stout lead and not one of those retractable things.
