@neala My brother has no idea what a dog really is, and believes anything anyone tells him, except for me (who actually has a dog, I take classes every week and I have trained my dog better than anyone in my family could've (she was reactive, scared of children and insecure about everything)). My uncle told him that playing with certain toys would make dogs see you as prey and that they would try to hunt you and eat you, and even after I explained to him that's not true because dogs aren't dumb and they know you're family, not prey, he still said it made sense. Now I belive my mother told me this uncle started (he obvioulsy didn't finish) studying to become a professional dog trainer, so either he skipped all his classes or this was some Cesar Millan type of bs. The worst thing, this uncle has a dog. The poor dog lives alone outdoors in some land they have and the few times they take her out for walks she's on a 0.5 meter prong that doesn't even let her lower her head to smell the floor, not to mention the treatment she gets with this kind of shitty mentality.
