I suspect that you are more correct than you realize in that if more people were better informed about dogs many professional dog trainers would in deed be out of work.
You will notice that I also said after the initial training/breaking in period the owner should then decide if additional/formal training is needed, desired or justified given the animal and its instinctive ability.
Dog trainers are an invaluable asset to the law enforcement community. They are equally over rated in the so called civilian community.
