About this listen

Generations of dogs have been labeled training lemons for requiring actual motivation when all along they were perfectly normal. Numerous other completely and utterly normal dogs have been branded as canine misfits simply because they grew up to act like dogs. Barking, chewing, sniffing, licking, jumping up, and occasionally (just like people) having arguments are as normal and natural for dogs as wagging tails and burying bones. However, all dogs need to be taught how to modify their normal and natural behaviors to adjust to human culture. Sadly, all too often, when the dog's way of life conflicts with human rules and standards, many dogs are discarded and summarily put to death. That's quite the Culture Clash.

What would have made The Culture Clash better?

Hugely biased, unscientific and a constant feeling that the author was writing just to herself. Does give the feeling that she does not respect anyone with a different opinion.

Feels a lot like if Carrie Mathison from Homeland was giving you a 9h lecture.
