Dogs are not people, you cannot use the same rules.
We all believe and are taught that you can't judge people by their looks, their skin color, their ethnic background, their "bloodlines" you have to judge people as individuals, by their actions and by their personalities.
We want to apply this logic to dogs, but we can't. Dogs have been selectively bred for hundreds of generations. Individuals that did not conform to the breed were removed from the breed. The difference from individual to individual is much smaller.
For example no one believes that you can take a dashund puppy, feed it well and nuture it to grow into a St Bernard. A dashund is bred to be small, it's going to be small, if breeders get a freak big dashund they are removed and do not reproduce. Why would anyone believe that a breed that was bred to be large, strong, fearless and aggressive, could be changed by some good upbringing?
