A Comparative Look at Canine Genetics and Behavior

A Comparative Look at Canine Genetics and Behavior - Memes on Aviaclip

This meme presents a visual argument regarding the role of genetics in canine behavior. The top four panels feature various dog breeds—a pointer, a herding dog, a husky, and a livestock guardian—each labeled with the word 'genetics' to highlight their innate, breed-specific instincts and physical traits. In contrast, the bottom panel shows two pit bull-type dogs in an aggressive stance, captioned with the phrase 'just how they are raised.' The image serves as a commentary on the ongoing debate between nature and nurture in dog training, suggesting that breed-specific predispositions play a significant role in how different dogs behave, regardless of their upbringing.

None of it works without training. They have some instincts, but won't be able to execute them if not trained.

I mean, all four of those breeds have been trained for the task for hundreds of years. It's human manipulated genetics.

Both are true. Genetics is a vastly important factor. But training is more important. Training over rules genetics, and the more a genetic trait is expressed, the more traing and more difficult training is required to GUIDE the behavior caused by the genetic trait to a direction
