We, the citizens of the United States, are to blame for the mess we are in.
As anyone who has watched “The Dog Whisperer” has learned, most poor behavior on the part of a dog is due to the dog assuming the alpha role. They think they are in charge, and stop listening to their masters. They begin to show psychotic behavior….
How do we resolve this? As on Dog Whisperer, we need to let the animals know that they have a role, but that role is not as pack leader.
• The dogs need to learn that they are not our masters.
• They need to learn that we are the ones that clothe and feed them.
• They need to learn that they can guard our homes, but only from threats - not from us.
• They need to learn that anyone who takes from one and gives to another needs to be bitten!
• They need to learn that an owner who is turned on by his dog results in a dog without a home.
• They need to learn that all owners need to be respected - the poor, the middle class, and the rich.
• They need to realize that you can not bite someone just because they earn over $250,000 per year.
• They need to realize that we buy their dog food, and keep them warm at night.
How do we do this? Let them know when they have overstepped their bounds. Let them know that misbehavior will not be tolerated. Let them know that we will soon have the opportunity to buy a new puppy (election day).
