Before you get a powerful breed for protection, Stonnie is asking you to take into account the potential risk you are placing on your fellow community members. Using his daughter, a Malinois puppy, and a friendly pit bull mix, he demonstrates a crucial point: control is conditional. While a puppy can be managed with positive reinforcement, its genetic drives and power can overwhelm a handler in a split second. Stonnie breaks down the idea of "externalized risk"—the burden of your dog's potential actions being placed on your neighbors. This video isn't about blaming breeds; it's a serious discussion about the responsibilities that come with owning them.
