Its a reason, why many people dont understand, whats about we speaking, if say "prepare to bonitation". Its not means to training in dog school only. Dog must be not trained to go to bonitation but must be good socialisated first. And its me sorry to say, but mostly in abroad (excl. CZ, SK and partly PL as well) is not problem "non trained dog" but SHY dogs, which shows, that owners dont socialisated dogs enough.

Sorry, but if somebody says such words, then shows, that have no basically knowledges about the cynology and ethology of dogs. Bonitation is not about agressivity or attacks. Bonitation in first row testing the self confidence of dog and his socialisation as well. I heard some times the stupid idea, that if is dog attacked from figurant, the is the best, when he dont defence self. What creatures want to have such people ? Normally living creature have a survival instinct and self defending instinct. So that if is attacked from other creature, then defending self. Its a basically princip of life. And the same is it on bonitation. If figurant goes only by dog, dog may not react. But if figurant attacking, then the dog MUST defend self hard.
Please, dont support ideas, which make from our dogs a toys. We are proud, that our wolfdogs are very inteligent and that have strong naturaly instincts. But on other side we see, that some people pushing down this inteligence and instincts. If somebody want to have a creature, which will be 100% obedient, without any instinct and reaction, then I recommending to buy some robot like

. Its a best solution for such people and not a living creature like our beautiful wolfdogs.
