I think every normal dog has agression in them.

My” work ” with dogs has mainly been with large groups of dogs. This has been very pack oriented dogs.

Following these dogs from birth to adulthood(2 maybe 3 litters every year)

The dogs I have been around have been living and working as a pack with very high dog too dog contact. Huskys are very pack oriented.

We sometimes had about 30 dog’s running free in te dog yard and 20 more dogs tied up in the same yard

I have seen agression in many forms and many levels and from many reasons. I have seen dog’s with high levels of restraint on their agression and dogs that have shown diplomatic ability.

None of this dogs have been totally agression free. A dog totally agression free would be a dysfunctional dog I think, just like a dog without any control of the agression would be dysfunctional.

I don’t think the dogs or the human mind is capable of being without agression, I think it would remove a important safety valve for frustration and other bad feelings. I also think it is a very important survival tool.

I have over the years been blessed with some fantastic pack leaders, second in command,my trusted helpers all of them brave dog’s with a good mix of agression and restraint

I don’t think there is a dog totally free of agression, whiteout it being a defect
