The video discusses the issues within the Cane Corso breed, focusing on the lack of mental stability in many dogs and identifying the breeders as the primary cause (4:27). Justin Rigney, a K9 handler and trainer with over 35 years of experience, joins the podcast to share his insights on this topic.

Here are the key discussion points:

Justin Rigney Experience (0:36): Justin, with 25 years of professional dog training, including 10 years as a K9 handler and trainer in law enforcement, notes a decline in the consistent quality and stable nerves of Cane Corsos he encounters.
The "Bad Dog, Bad Owner" Myth (15:03): The hosts and Justin strongly dismiss the popular saying "there are no bad dogs, just bad owners," stating that some dogs are inherently unstable due to genetics and should not be kept as pets due to the danger they pose.
Genetics and Breeding (5:18): Tony Scandy a dedicated breeder, emphasizes that mental stability is primarily genetic, starting in the whelping box. He criticizes mass production for profit, leading to unstable dogs.
Unscrupulous Breeders (7:05): The discussion highlights that even "big-name" breeders with fancy websites contribute to the problem by prioritizing money over breeding mentally sound dogs. They often produce large numbers of litters without proper care or assessment of the dogs' temperament.
The "Fix" Myth in Training (19:21): Justin explains that genetic instability cannot be "fixed"; it can only be mitigated and managed. He criticizes trainers who mislead owners into believing severe aggression or nervousness can be completely resolved, especially in pet homes.
The Role of Social Media and Hollywood (24:00): The speakers discuss how social media can be used to expose irresponsible breeding practices. They also touch upon how Hollywood movies (e.g., The Omen with Rottweilers, Magnum PI with Dobermans, 101 Dalmatians with Dalmatians, John Wick with Malinois) can increase demand for certain breeds, leading to unethical breeding practices to meet that demand.
Moving Forward (25:19): The proposed solution involves radical honesty and exposure of irresponsible breeding through platforms like social media. The goal is to educate potential buyers to make informed decisions and force breeders to change their practices or face reduced demand.
