GSD's are the number one EASIEST breed of dog to train. Why then do so many?

self-proclaimed trainers have them? Do they think we are so dumb not to know that this is not a reflection on their ability and that a skilled trainer can work with all breeds and excel at both training and behavior modification? Why are some of them the most vocal about putting others down, or is this just a betrayal of their own weakness as trainers that they know how easy it is to train a GSD and they can't work with other breeds? What do you think, Curtis? (Is it insecurity, ignorance and lack of honest experience, arrogance or a combination of them all?) Is it fear or lack of skill that prompts the bad ones to use forceful techniques rather than positive reinforcement? If you need punishment techniques to get a dog to obey, especially GSD's, they should really find another line of work!
