attack mode; c.) tend to be purchased by lazy and irresponsible
dog owners who do not train their
dogs to obey, and who tend to spoil their
dogs, causing more aggression and bratty behavior; d.) undo most of the important aspects of your obedience training and leadership over your
dog, especially obeying around distractions and coming when called, and over time they teach your
dog to charge after
other dogs, animals and even people; e.) are hard to control once the
dog is at the end of the line, and can get caught in the leashes of
other dogs, increasing the potential for a
biting or
attack incident; f.) do NOT cause the
dog to get more exercise on the walk; g.) can cause a
