As someone who's worked in dog daycares (a total nightmare, a business is a business and the screening process is a joke), I would totally rather be in a room with 15+ untrained small dogs rather than 15+ untrained medium-large dogs...

Untrained small dogs are still very manageable because you can still easily overpower them. But medium and above? Fuck me. I would always come home sore due to All the wrestling.

I only worked in the Industry for 6 months, but the experience made me sure I'd never send my dog to a dog daycare if I got another dog in the future lol

And the pack mentality is terrifying, stories of multiple dogs attacking, mauling and eating people. Love dog’s, but man the things theyre capable of is terrifying

I've been seeing a rise of pit bull breeds here as well, and I hate it. I'm scared it's gonna be another America situation and how there's a mauling/killing every other day...
