Lets a take a GL for example. 1. I was suggest that a person first simply research the mechanics of the GL in how it is designed to function by reading the manufacturers description on various web sites.

[/quote] This sounds like there are no bad trainers or behaviourists in the USA, I am assuming you are from there, which I do know is not true. That is not what is being said and I am not sure how you would gather that from what I said? You may know the right trainers to go to, they don't, our vets ...

Been there done that and do that every day in my profession. It was not untill I was put into the position of determining which dog lives and which dog dies as a profession and had to learned to ask the question just who is the best skilled at asking such opinions concerning rehab. I concur there is...

I think this currently is what the american tv commercial of DON SULLIVAN is now doing and marketing today. Many dogs over the years were and are still trained this way and achieve top recognition across all venues of dog performance and pet ownership. OK, as an American with a TV and satellite dis...

Having been to 2 taping events,watching his shows, and having a friend who took his dog to Ceaser for training there is without a doubt that ceaser has used and will use about any aversive method he deems fit at the time.

The idea is to create a discomforting or painful consequence to a unwanted behavior hoping that this action of the tool whatever it might end up being will act as a correction. problem is o...
