A taught a pitbull to retrieve ducks. But he was still a pitbull. :)

Never fully trusted any herding breed not to bite. That’s pretty much their job.

Indeed it is and too many people don’t know the ingrained nature of the breeds they buy.
For instance, too many ACDs end up in shelters because “the dog keeps “nipping” the kids”.
Well duh.
They’re herders and the kids are the herd.
It’s who they are.
