    Yet again, the dog will not attack UNLESS it is commanded to by a human.

    If no one ever commands the dog to attack, it will never attack anyone. It is safer than plenty of dogs who have never had any training and attack people because of it.

        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.
