haha, I am in the NW too. The rain lately has been crazy, I do want summer! I had to get my corgi used to the rain. He still has airplane ears sometimes in protest, but once we get training he...

I think a good question to piggy back off of the OP question is, what is a proper amount of deprivation to create drive?

There's that word "force" again....man oh man, I GUARANTEE those trainers use compulsion. Just very low levels of it(negative verbal and body posturing, depriving reward, food, play....). Please...

So in YOUR experience you've made a generalized opinion about people who use compulsion, and then ask me NOT to do that based on my experiences? And that was the first example I had seen in person, I...

I guess I disagree, wholeheartedly, again lol. Sometimes I think some higher compulsion(pinch, ecollar, etc) IS what's best for the DOG, regardless of what the handler is comfortable with. And by...

I don't mean to go off topic, but I am so glad you brought this up(second bolded part). My mother's corgi is a huge stress-anxiety-barker. When I was in Michigan last month I got a bark collar for...

I guess we will agree to disagree. In animal packs around the world there is no "persuading" a member to WANT to do something and waiting over and over again for it to happen correctly. It's, do...

Agreed! And I completely UNDERSTAND why so many people advocate against compulsion (or certain higher levels of it). I believe people know that it can be misused, that emotions (anger) can be...

Sorry, shouldn't have said "very little" should have said "below that dog's true required level OR zero." The dog I saw that was positive only, probably has seen a little compulsion through a stern...

First bolded: Read my post again, the dog was training on a club field....not a trial. And she was ABSOLUTELY blowing off the handler, no signs of stress at all.

I didn't know this debate was about physical force, or force in general?? I thought it was about compulsion? Which is what body posture, verbal, etc...is. If that is enough for a certain dog, than...

The OP wasn't asking about training a new behavior, his dog knows the drill, knows the correct response to the command. He is talking about "proofing," if you will. His dog ONLY does the command...

Oh and my corgi, who receives compulsion along with reward, JUMPS into his position for every command because he is so excited. I HATE it when people say that dogs trained with compulsion are sulky,...

That's all well and dandy, but what about when the dog HAS to obey, or there are serious consequences. IE, running across a road when a car is coming. And by ONLY marking the right "option" your...
