People are such idiots

I watched this video about a dog Victoria Stilwell had on her show.

All the comments basically say that she failed the dog and it has been murdered and that she is a terrible trainer blah blah blah. People are such idiots. Always looking to blame people. If a dog attacks and mauls someones child not once, not twice but THREE times then it is perfectly acceptable to say that this dog needs to be put to sleep.

Even after extensive training with Victoria Stilwell this dog still attacked. How does that automatically mean this is all Victorias fault? The dog attacked twice before her training and once after. Saying it just needed a new home or that it should have been put into kennels as kennels, and i quote, "Have warm blankets, they get fed, they get a walk every day and the carers love them" is just totally ignorant. Victoria herself says that this is more than just behavioural as there was no warnings no triggers at all the dog would just attack everyone, the child always got the worst of it obviously.

What goes through peoples heads though? If a dog mauls someone, its safe to say that it won't just be okay in a kennel the rest of its life. I also bet all my money that if this had been a staffy or bull dog type, the comments on youtube would have been TOTALLY different. But no, its a fluffy dog so its the trainers fault for killing it.

There are some dogs that cannot be rehabilitated. That's one of my (many) criticisms of Cesar Milan.

Victoria tried & it didn't work - at least she tried. And how do we know that the owners followed her instructions to the letter anyway?

I'm not particularly backing Victoria Stillwell - just saying that the blame can't be attributed to her!

Exactly my point too! She tried, the family may have tried i'm not sure. But this dog just was not able to be helped. Ceasrer would not have been able to help it either, he would have just pinned it down and forced it to sit still for his cameras.

And any dog that has been trained through fear/punishment will one day get over its fear.........

grrrr the dog just needed basic trainning this pee me right off i'm sick of it... no wonder our soceity is so bad when people cant even bring up dog the right way.....

what is it going be like in 10/15 years
