Reading the VS vs CM debate on the other thread has provoked a question or 2.
Is it me or have we got more unsociable dogs than we had before these TV personalities/training methods come onto the scene?
15-20 years ago it was not unusual to see dogs being let out in the morning when the owner went to work and let back in when they came back, the majority of these dogs were friendly, well socialised etc.
You would walk in the park with your dog and very few people would become neurotic if your dog met with theirs
There were far more 'mutts' than pedigrees and you spent less time in the vets and on food.
Has anyone else noticed this change?
