You may notice that there is a person in the dog training community who is constantly upset about one thing or another - usually other dog trainers. This person is spewing lies about dog training and dog ownership as a whole. I would normally ignore it, but it is a dangerous lie that will costs dogs their lives and it will cause suffering to many people as well.
Bottom line, DOGS NEED STRUCTURE, they need training and they benefit from corrections. You can see my videos here on YouTube and the full versions on my online training platform here:
I have worked with dogs for nearly 20 years, 15 as a professional trainer. I have handled almost every breed, behavior, size and temperament of dog. I can truthfully tell you the their "purely positive" dog training movement is extremely flawed and they are covering this flaw with lies and propaganda!
In this video I share a very personal message that I received from a viewer who had to put their dog down because they probably believed this lie. It's sad, it's painful, but we have to do what's best for our dogs.
I urge trainers to work together for the greater good of the dogs we LOVE. Please share this video and its message. Thank you!
