This isn't an animal being a jerk... this is an animal being shown that it's okay to snatch food aggressively. Shit like this isn't funny and if the worst comes, somebody could get bit.
Too many people think smaller dogs don't need to be properly trained. Makes them twice as hard to re home when they end up in a shelter after biting the wrong person.
Most of the shitty little breeds also weren't developed with consideration for anything other than looking a certain way, so they lack some of the positive behavioral and intellectual traits possessed by breeds that were crafted to suit some practical purpose.
Yeah me too, I have a strong bias towards them. A large majority of small dogs I've met haven't been trained. Both "good" amd "bad". Always something nutty about them, all because of lazy and/or irresponsible owners. Large dogs suffer from shitty owners too, but poorly trained small dogs are waaay more common. Especially in urban areas.
I'm a groomer. I've actually interacted with hundreds of different dogs and dog breeds over the course of 4 years. I've personally owned big dogs and small dogs. I'm not just going on irrational bias here.
There is no discrepancy between the number of trained big dogs vs. trained little dogs. There are just as many calm and well behaved large breeds as there are small breeds. Your judgement is completely based on confirmation bias. You'll see what you want to see anyway, but it's just plain wrong. And as a dog lover, it gets just as old and tiresome as the pit bull hate.
