But realistically if breeds like Doberman, Pitbull etc, weren't what they are today, pets, and someone took people out and showed you pitbulls and Doberman's in the wild acting like they would, people would likely have the same reaction. "Is this a joke? We're going to domesticate that and people will walk them down the street as pets? What happens when they act like the savage animals they can be when a situation startles them?".

Interesting theory - but before I query you further about your lack of knowledge of dogs I'm curious as to what this pre-domesticated Doberman or Pitbull would look like. I'm guessing it would look something like the pre-domesticated labrador retriever, poodle, pug, husky and bulldog.

Spoiler!
