[nagdu] another what would you do question

Mon Apr 9 15:02:55 UTC 2012

Mark, that doesn't really matter.  The dog should simply not be allowed to 
do that!  If he has a tendency to be aggressive, his partner should iether 
stop him from doing that or go back to the school and learn how or get 
another dog.
