Oh I agree western also doesn't mean smart and eastern doesn't mean dumb. I think I'm where Lee was, we may just have to agree to disagree. Once artificial selection stopped being the driving force in their population, they would stop being working dogs and revert back to pariah types. Because there is no selective advantage in a naturally breeding population to fight to defend a food source and not eat it. The more pariah like dogs would have a huge advantage over the more LGD like dogs. Unless there was another pressure tipping the scales like human selection. That's still artificial selection because humans are controlling the overall direction of the populations development. Even if it's not a dedicated breeding program like the program that created the dogo.
