Don't get up tight man, "Opinion" by definition is a general term and not based on a proven theory. Everyone has opinions some good some bad but to use the analogy that it
has been done for years and you think it works is not sound advise. Just because you don't get a ticket for speeding does not mean it is sound advise to say everyone should speed.
Not an expert on dogs, everyone I have trained has taught me something.
There are no "Generic" dogs and "Misinformation" about them and how to train them abounds, especially in South La. Modern training methods have been formulated over many years by guys way smarter than me, I just choose to buy into them because of their success playing the "Game". No, I no longer play the game but train as though each dog is.
There is a difference in a well trained dog, have plenty of clients in Lafayette for referrals if you are interested. They will gladly show you the end product and you can judge for yourself.
