I'm not saying anythings wrong with that! Just that it happens.

. Adam, may I suggest you ask to go and sit in on a training class run by a good trainer who predominantly uses rewards. I think you will very likely have a change of view if you ever get to see this type of training carried out properly. In fact, if you can convince the trainer to let you shadow them during an aggression one to one session, I think you will learn vast amounts. If it ever comes off, take your video camera and compare your own footage with that taken at such a session. You may then begin to understand a little bit about training predominantly with reward

no wonder you HAVE to use a Ecollar, youd be unable to train in a normal way , due to lack of empathy , understanding & talent

- Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) derived from wolves.
- Most aim to please a human who they trust and stay loyal to for most of their lives.
- Rescue dogs are often found to be hardest to rehabilitate as many have issues - these can be resolved with TLC
- Dogs feel pain but will not show it unless near enough death or in immense pain.
Thats about it from me

Btw did you watch the follow up vids?

BTW I've mentioned Coercion & its Fallout by Murray Sidman a few times on Dogsey & I can highly recommend it. It's not sentimental twaddle & it's not a dog training/behaviour book but it graphically illustrates the things that can go wrong & the emotional fallout from using coercion for teaching & in just in general, both on an individual level & international level. Quite thought provoking, if sometimes idealistic, but well worth a read.
