Episode 385 - Mike Ritland

I mean, to me, I get asked a lot what your favorite breed is. I don't really have one. Obviously, I work with Malinois and Shepherds predominantly.

And they can augment our lives in whatever capacity, whether it's a seeing eye dog to a rat terrier to a fucking herding dog. You know, of course, you know, I'm a little biased.

I've also seen so many remarkable things from Malinois and shepherds. They are an amazing species. Yeah. You know, are there dogs that can do certain things that they can do better than them? Yes. But in every case that I've seen, that's the only thing they can do at all. Everything else. I mean, yeah, there are. You know, some some hunting dogs that can bite harder. Yeah.

You know, or kill things faster or damage more, but not not by much. You know, some dogs are faster. Some dogs are a little more athletic. Some dogs are maybe cognitively a little more advanced and can learn a little faster. Some of the border collies. But for a utilitarian dog, if I was.
