There are no such thing as drives in dogs

[cliffson1]

Prey drive is so different and distinct these days from dogs 40 years ago that it is night and day. This has been bred for, it is predictable, and commonly seen in western sport lines. I can look at a pedigree and tell you some litters will have 80% of pups with extreme prey drive.

Same here. I really don't have the need to break it down an further.
