My dog Clyde has the most drive I have had in a dog ...

I didn't see the program, but I do agree with some of your comments.

I would agree that not to blame the dog breed. I agree that you get good dogs and bad owners, but you also get good owners and ...

I agree with you 100%. I thought I was helping some people with a method of walking the dog that is easier to use that learning different types of lead work.
