Now - nobody shoot me here, but i was talking to the dog behaviourist who i work for recently as we have an adult EBT in one of our classes.
Apparantly the EBT's brain has been bred in such as way that it only just works like a dogs. The thinking part of the dogs brain has been shrunk and the reacting part of the brain has been enlarged, as well as having their pain receptors reduced significantly.
Sorry i can't remember all the correct words for the different parts of the brain, but what humans have bred is a dog that feels little pain, is not a great thinker, but mearly reacts to situations at a very base level. Fight, flight, freeze.
Hence the difficultly some seem to have when it comes to training, but like the others have said, funny dogs, bulls in china shops etc etc. ......oh and can be very farty!
