Read my article on Breed Expert: Tackling Leash Training: Tips for Polite and Enjoyable Walks.
Note that the Breed Expert website does not represent my opinions or beliefs. My own articles, and only those articles that I have personally authored there, are what I know to be honest and accurate information. The other authors and opinions on the Breed Expert website in no way reflect my own opinions and interpretations.
My hope is that my writing for Breed Expert will continue to shift opinions to agree with science and common sense that reward-based scientific training is the best and only way to train our dogs.
I support the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior's position statement that only positive, humane, and fear-free methods should be used when educating a dog. Reward-based methods should be used for ALL training, including challenging behavior disorders.
