Have to put my two cents in on this topic. Kids have been mauled over food they've dropped and a food aggressive dogs wants.
Also I truly see zero reason for not training. Even for your on personal liability. Also a trained dog is freer and happier. I believe every dog is trainable. My good friend trains last chance aggressive dogs. Sometimes they stop by on the way to the vets to put the dog down they Are so hopeless. He has a 100% success rate! The dogs respond every time! It is possible! C. Milan is very good btw. Bill Koehler's book is better!
