We don't use "cages, chains, shock collars, muzzles, etc" for Labradors...As a matter of fact everybody in my neighborhood has at least one dog and I have NEVER seen anyone use "cages, chains, shock collars, muzzles, etc".....

And if I did I would report them immediately.....
Response:
If one lives in as apartment, a pet is essentially caged in the rooms provided when the owner is not home.
Smaller cages are used extensively for transport.
Personally, I think it is irresponsible (if not animal abuse) to own a large dog if there are not facilities adequate for a large dog.
Many, if not most leashes are chains and are mandated in many urban areas.
Chains are also used if the available fencing is not adequate to contain the animal.
I mentioned shock collars because Cheyenne mentioned them and they are often used for training and/or fencing.
Muzzles are mandated in California in many situations, particularly for problem dogs.

The most any responsible dog owner should do is kennel train for the first couple of months....
Response:
You never answered my question but I'm guessing you have never lived on a farm.
So who are you to criticize those who have to assure different species live in the same area?
To criticize those who have to care for more animals than a couple of pets?
To criticize those who worry about an open or broken gate or holes burrowed under a fence?
To criticize those who may not have the extra funds, time, and/or availability to kennel train one of their animals?

Since my dogs are labs, they train easily. Same with German Shepherds....
Response:
So you've had no experience with training except for easy dogs, yet you criticize those who encounter problems you never had to contend with.

...I also believe that 99.9% of all dogs are NOT bad dogs.....Probably no such thing as a bad dog....Only bad dog owners....
Response:
Your belief is exists in a sea of ignorance and carries no weight.

As far as Trump picking her, he should NOT...
Response:
A conclusion based on a flimsy character attack and not on policies.
You gripe about all politicians being evil. Well this is an example of how we get rid of any potential good ones.
As I mentioned to another poster, it infuriates me to see how well this tactic works.
