Family adopts beautiful brindle puppy that vet deems "dangerous" based on wild hunch, leaving family confused and seeking answers

We've said it before, and we'll say it again. There are no "bad dogs", only bad owners.

Every dog has different needs to feel safe, calm, and secure. Even different dogs within the same breed have different needs. One golden retriever might be a bursting ball of energy and need constant stimulation in order not to chew up your whole house, whereas their sister might just want to sleep all day. Border collies will have very different needs from French bulldogs, for example. If you don't mentally tire out your border collie daily with obedience training, games, and puzzles, you'll have a dog that has too much energy and no way of dealing with it. If you tried to do all of those things with a French bulldog, you wouldn't even manage to get through the first step without them overheating and passing out. 

All of this is to say that if the pawrent truly understands their doggo and its needs, there is no reason for any dog to be deemed "dangerous". The most dangerous dogs are the ones that are untrained and put in situations where they are not equipped to deal with the situation at hand. So, for this family's vet from Reddit's r/IDmydog community to call their puppy "dangerous" because it could be a temperamental breed, we're more than skeptical - we're already on our way out to find a new vet. 

Vets, more than anyone, should understand the importance of proper training and stimulation when it comes to dogs' temperaments. Some dogs are reactive, and no matter of training will stop it, but there is a lot you can do on the human side to make it very livable. We know. We have a highly reactive dog at home and we've lived a great life with her. It hasn't been easy, but it is possible. However, it is not the right fit for every family or lifestyle; this is something the family will have to understand for themselves.
