I would fear for that Rottweiler cross. His future doesn't look good.
Most people are too undisciplined themselves to be able to discipline their dog. As I understand it, you have to be firm and patient and consistent with a dog. Commands need to be simple and always the same. People who say long involved things to their dogs are ridiculous. Do they really think the dog can understand and respond to such things.
Dogs who end up in shelters for aggression have probably lived in situations that have been frustrating and threatening.
There are online sites that could help and there are dog trainers. Why wouldn't a person get help.
It has been my experience of people that most won't do things to help themselves. They certainly won't do anything to help their dog.
I think most of these dogs will still get better with the right training. Shelters are supposed to provide that training and not give up and euthanize the animal. Hopefully the publicity from this will make people think about how they are training their dog and prevent it from ending up in the shelter in the first place.
