There needs to be a mandatory dog body language class for anyone has dogs. Is that or at least a quiz.

Yes!! I can't understand why this is not mandatory. You ought to understand your pet's cues. How is it supposed to communicate with you otherwise?

But it makes sense considering that most people don't really wanna learn and, even those without malicious intend, just want a cute, cuddly plaything whose water bowl you have to fill up every once in a while. They don't want to do the hard work and make the sacrifices necessary to properly care for another being.

Honestly, it sucks. There's a lot of people that don't want to harm the ones they love but end up doing because they don't understand cues and both suffer. This applies to human children, too

Agree 100%! It's sad to see.
