[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 2262333, member: 1242"] BUT ... your three are not going to give you any experience in dealing with behavioral problems outside your comfort zone. For example, how many times has one of your dogs tried to bite you? I've been bitten by cats (3 times) more than dogs (0 times, but I've come way too close for comfort a time or two). You gotta experience a dog behavior (both the good and the bad) and a YouTube video ain't gonna cut it ... You, sir ... are 1 in a bazillon. I wish more people were like you. You understand why your dog is the way he is. Your dog is safer and better off for it. :) True that! I can be rough having a dog that is smarter than you are. (I know, because I've been in the same boat you're in now! :D) :scratch: I'm not sure what you are asking. Susanne uses only positive reinforcement methods with all her dogs. Clicker training is a quicker more efficient way to mark and/or shape complex (and not so complex) behaviors you want to encourage and promote. [/QUOTE]
