A lot of fear biters are being bred, not 'made'.

Okay. I do not dispute that at all. There isn't a way to tell if a dog's
fear-biting potential stems from heredity or environment, is there? And
then, what if environment has compounded bad genes!? What a mess!

Is one variety any easier to repair than the other? Or is fear biting
repairable at all? I like to believe it is, in most cases. I often get
to hug dogs that start out wanting to eat me. Unfortunately, my winning
their trust doesn't always save their life--because no one else takes
the time to earn their acceptance. That's shelter life, and death.

When I die, I want to go where dogs go!
