This is exactly why I said these dogs need to be reported to the county or the local authority responsible for animal control. Most jurisdictions have registration and ownership requirements for guard or attack dogs. I would contact local animal control to make sure these dogs are registered and that their owners are compliant if these aren’t SEAL canines. If they are not registered, then I would petition the local official to confiscate them as they have been improperly trained and handled, and strongly consider euthanasia.

If you have any experience with training guard and attack dogs, you would know.

You want government to control everything, I see.

If they were NOT part of an official training exercise, then they absolutely must be euthanized for reasons of public safety. Once you train the dogs to associate certain clothing, demeanor, behavior as cues for attack, there is no un-training them. They must be put down.

It is people like you and every single one who thinks this is just some joke that really put animals and the public at risk. It is irresponsible animal ownership and it is a danger to public safety.

This is not a joke.
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.

Any kind of dog registration is a money grab and most states do not require registration of guard dogs despite what hellopity says. NYC requires it because they require $ for everything.

I hope those poor dogs can get the taste out of their mouth. Might have to lick their own butts for a while.

From his admiration of Castro, to saying "everyone's a racist" he is a douche bag

Disgusting anyway you look at it. Just disgusting. No need to train in that manner. Wholly unprofessional and unnecessary.

Agreed. It’s animal cruelty really.

The military isn't like the rest of us, hellopity. They are trained to reject their own survival instincts, and instead, value the life of others over their own.

THAT is some breaking down of human instincts, and creating other instincts.

And the Seals are the top of the top of that.
I’ve dated SEALs and I can tell you the ones I’ve dated don’t behave like that when they are on duty. They have the right to have political opinions, participate in political rallies and such when they aren’t on the clock. Fortunately, the Navy determined none of these people was on active duty when the video was filmed. Which then begs the question: are those civilian canines and were they trained and registered? I would definitely contact local animal control to make sure.
