Do u believe there are bad dogs by nature?

CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
No, they are animals with their instincts, they are not bad. But they are a threat in the hands of bad owners.
Just as with people, occasionally I bet it happens.

Good question. I don't know. But I think it's like people. Everyone is born innocent and a blank slate. But some, irrespective of their environment, turn out 'bad.' I do think that love and attention with a puppy will most always help create a happy dog. But there could be something going on in their brains where that doesn't resonate.

@Wiseacre OK. I probably should have qualified that by saying some are born with chemical imbalances or other physiological challenges. But I believe that, by and large, we're products of our environment. We have nothing when we come in to the world. Everything is imprinted in our brains.What's imprinted creates the personality.

@Ynotisay what is imprinted are traumas from our forefathers.

If there is a bad dog blame its owner i have 2 pitbulls and the love kids so friendly

@Wiseacre dont let looks fool you or what media says. Once you meet a pitty you will understand
Wiseacre · F
@James2024 ok, fair enough
James2024 · 26-30, M
@Wiseacre cool

Yes, just as there are bad people. Bad karma. The Tibetans traditionally believed dogs were people in their previous lifetime and if they were treated well they would be people again next time.
Wiseacre · F
Well, that’s a believe..not fact.@hunkalove
hunkalove · 61-69, M
@Wiseacre You don't know that. People in Tibet believed it for a thousand years. When the Chinese took over they ate all the dogs.
Some are wild. Just like humans.

@Wiseacre no though certain breeds have a bad reputation i think it is human intervention that train them too be vicious as after all dogs are suppose to be mans best friend
Wiseacre · F
@smiler2012 not all dogs...
Boleuskas · M
No, dogs are reflection of their owners or street behavior if they are stray dogs
Boleuskas · M
@Elanor well dogs have different personalities just like people do, but trust me i had dogs all my life, and not one of them intentionally bad, eight now i have Malinoa very demanding dog full of energy, but since i work with him every day he is a big softy
