Labs have such sweet natures too. This along with their loyalty and willingness to be trained to please their owners is why the vast majority of Guide Dogs are Labrador/Retriever crosses (they apparently have different characters and this is the perfect mix).
As you know, it is very rarely bad dogs but shitty owners that cause problems.
Agreed, lovely natured dogs
I have done some work in the past, with an assistance dog group
My mate had a red pitbull, the sweetest most gentle dog ever, as you say, it's the owners at fault
Believe it or not, before Beau came to us, people who knew him, said he had tried to attack them and other dogs
It was because he was walked every day and had loads of attention, then his previous owners got ill and weren't able to do the things he needed
When he came to us, he seemed to realise, that he was in a better environment and he was given the run of the house, and as much love and affection as he could handle
He bonded with us right away and him and Liliana became fast friends
Anyway, here's tpo all the dugs in our lives, and the cats too
We could learn a lot from animals, and how to get along with each other
