You know, I might give instructions to someone that has a clue; but NOT to the average pet owner and then have him get hurt because, yeah, he followed my instructions -- but had no idea about a lot of other things that have to be considered before one gets close to fighting dogs.

I just really wouldn't want that responsibility.

Carla... at one time, ALL of us were "average pet owners".

And if you aren't willing to teach people, how do you expect them to learn how to become "experienced" dog owners??? At some point, you are either part of the solution, or part of the problem. If people weren't willing to help others learn how to be better dog owners, and that includes learning how to break up a fight, then we would all just become stuck in a rut of being "average pet owners". Sit on the sidelines and watch if you like, but realize there are a lot of people out there that don't mind helping others by teaching them how to be better prepared. Others can sit and complain all day long about how everyone else is doing things wrong, but until they decide to jump in and help solve the problem, really, in my opinion, they have nothing to complain about. If I see a way to help someone learn something, I'll help them in every way I know how, but I realize not everyone is like that. I'm not a "sidelines" kind of person though.

Many of us learned things WITHOUT the Internet and maybe, with some subjects, we need to go back to that.

You know, you always have the option to NOT click on one of these threads and read it.... no one requires you to read them to be an active member of the forum.

And by all means, if you have learned enough without the help of the internet and forums, feel free to log off and "go back to that" way of living.
