Despite our enduring love of telly shows about dog behaviour, general knowledge about probable dog outcomes is scanty - even, apparently, in Police Review. A snarling police dog is probably the safest 60lb of canine you will ever encounter, since these creatures are the most intelligent, best-trained dogs. This has passed so seamlessly into the collective understanding that people, on seeing a young man with a certain kind of dog, simply assume he means no good, neither to the dog nor to society. Even assuming you’ve got a tenacious, serious, intelligent dog, the training involved to generate a dog’s aggression, and then marshal it, is immense. In summary, a well-trained dog in responsible hands will not bite you; and a dog in irresponsible hands will almost certainly not be well-trained.
