[quote=Anonymous] You know I feel that the trend of positive dog training has in some measure been detrimental to a lot of dogs who need strong but very time-specific correction at certain moments in their life, as in OP's situation. Many dog owners equate positive methods with never elevating their tone of voice, never laying their hands on the dog, etc. This is not compatible with a dog's communication capability: dogs don't understand many words, they understand the tone of voice. They understand corrections like pressures on muzzle and around the neck, because that's how dogs communicate with each other. I don't know what that trainer did, but for others reading this thread, please understand that most positive method dog trainers aren't worth the money and time you're spending on them. [/quote]
