True They are not for the inexperienced owner. I have had some in
classes, from puppyhood on.

I have never heard anyone who knows anything about them recommend them
for first time owners or wishy washy owners. That's rare, IME, so I
guess that's why that's one breed I would never even consider without
really knowing a whole lot about them. I'm not particularly
inexperienced and I am more no nonsense than wishy washy, but I still
have this caution about them. Now I am curious to know more
specifics. What have the ones you have had in class been like?
