I'd be fine w/ the breed taking a back-burner position, but I don't think it's going to happen. I think the solution is simple, yet rarely seems to happen: TELL THE TRUTH. The whole truth, not just the nice stuff. * Tell everyone that these dogs should be human friendly. If yours is not, you have a problem. * Tell everyone that these dogs are prone to animal aggression. Don't let you guard down or think you know it all. When you least expect it, your dog could decide he doesn't like another animal. * Tell everyone that these dogs need a LOT of exercise. If you're not willing to get off your ass EVERY DAY and do something w/ your dog, then it's not the right dog for you.
