We need to talk: Fire your dog trainer!

Added 2017-05-06 22:53:00 +0000 UTC

With so many dog training methods, how are you supposed to know which way is best? In this video I'll break down what you should avoid and what you should look for in a dog trainer.

We need to talk: Fire your dog trainer!

Comments

I discovered your videos before I had any personal experience with professional trainers. I find your videos enjoyable and informative (I've remained a patreon supporter) but I've also done a training program with a local trainer who utilizes an e-collar as a part of the training and I was genuinely surprised at the low levels that were effective to communicate with the dogs. It is anything but a "shock" as you repeatedly state. It frustrates me that others are likely in the same position that I was in because positive only trainers have misrepresented what modern shock collars are capable of doing as a part of the training. It is anything but barbaric or harmful. My dogs try to knock each other out of the way to see whose turn it is to wear the collar.

I think we share the common goal of what is good for the dogs. Developing the dog's confidence and safely and humanely training the dog behaviors so that people enjoy their dogs and the dogs live a fulfilled life and keep their home. If people surrender dogs who aren't responsive to one style of training, the wholesale vilification of other methods will convince those owners that the dog is untrainable. And that dogmatic presentation gets dogs rehomed or surrendered where many of them never make it out of the shelter.
