    There are tons and tons of dogs who attack without being commanded to and you want to kill the dog that knows through extensive training not to attack people. That’s ludicrous.

            No, teach them to only attack people when commanded. Unlike other dogs which could attack indiscriminately. I have no idea why you think an untrained dog is safer than a trained one. Do you know how many people are attacked by untrained dogs every year?

                Did you teach your dogs to only be aggressive on command and to never show aggression otherwise? Because that’s how police dogs are trained. Can you be certain your dogs would never get aggressive even in stressful circumstances? Because, again, that’s how police dogs are trained.

                I would bet your dogs are nowhere near as well-trained.

                    How do you know your dogs will never maul anyone? They have claws and sharp teeth. Unless you trained them to only let out aggression when they’re commanded to, how can you possibly be assured they will never do that? Just because they’ve been good so far?
