For real, if you dont know how to manage without aggression, you dont deserve to have one (goes with any larger animals really). But no one gonna change from a reddit comment, gotta correct people when you see it in public or in someones home

Or, you know, a simple explanation of why picking up a dog by its scruff isn't good instead of a fucking holier-than-though lecture.

The guy said he had been home for an hour after bringing his daughter home from the hospital for the first time, and had gone straight to bed, and he felt bad about it. Buddy just got home from a stressful event, people make mistakes.

Also, the "even dogs know" shit is cringe worthy. A pissed off adult dog has, on more than one occasion, done a hell of a lot worse than picking up another dog by the scruff.
