ummmm ok, it is still some sort of aspect of the test, and I was stating that it helps show that they can be good family pets, not that they are super friendly. I'm trying to show to people who claim they are bad dogs that they aren't. Any dog can be a bad dog or a good dog. It is up to the owner to be accountable for the training and socializing of their pet.
