What happens when you take away hunting from a hunting dog?
The animal will wander, misbehave, and suffer. Its "factory" function won't vanish. It'll manifest itself, one way or another.
If the owner obstructs this function, misery awaits. Nothing exhausts like fighting against the forces of nature. They're ready to go all the way, and you're not.
Now imagine, within you, there are both—the owner and the dog.
The dog feels it's a born hunter. Sadly, it can't speak. And the owner "accidentally" bought the cute puppy at the market. Some drifter was selling it nameless and pedigree-less "as is."
Their life together will be drama and comedy. Until the owner sheds illusions and starts studying the dog's habits.
Then you might discover what lies behind the seemingly sinister stubbornness and wild antics. As a result, you can begin to live with the hunting function together, not against it.
Start by giving the dog the opportunity to search, chase, and fetch "prey." Then find a trainer to develop the skills. Finally, head out into nature and put it to the test.
You may be pleasantly surprised. As you breathe in the forest's scent and feel the rush of the hunt, you'll exclaim, "This is exactly what I've been longing for!"
Sincerely yours,
-Alexander
