If the dog isn’t violent then stop trying to fucking train to not be violent.
You don't train dogs to be non violent
If they never show aggression to you taking a bone while they chew, you getting near their face, etc. then there’s nothing to be done
You train them to be obedient and follow commands
They literally need that structure
It kinda works in the opposite way a dog goes chain crazy
Unless you’re talking about specifics like “give me paw” it comes with going pee and poop you train them obedience.
When we say “let’s go outside” they come.
When we say “inside let’s go” they come.
All commands should be a single word
Followed by a gesture
Oh boo-hoo that they’re not
It still works just fine
I'm giving you my professional opinion
There’s different ways of training a dog
Doesn't mean they're correct
There's different ways of treating a wound
You could rub dirt in it, for instance
I hear you, you’re giving me the professional super hard core, pay you money to help me teach it way when we did it for free but it’s not 1 word
It is very easy to confuse the dog otherwise
We say the same thing every time so there no confusion
And they’re 5 and 9 now so they’ve heard it long enough
If it learns the commands, it learns them and that's great
I'm not talking about specific instances though. Generalised training
I have done one in one training too though
Dr. Harry was an idol of mine
Professionally I agree with you, but saying someone didn’t properly train their dog because it’s not one word followed by a gesture isn’t *in my opinion* right.
He was a vet and animal behavioural specialist
We need to train cats to stop having sex
Too many god damn cats
I didn't mean that as improper training. I mentioned improper training before that was brought up. My issue was with the incomprehensiveness
I hate cats
Cats in my country anyway
But we've had that argument I think
If behavioural psychology of pets interests you, you should definitely check out Dr Harry on yt
He's dealt with every type of pet basically
I think his telly show was called Harry's Practice
Do those pets include reptiles?
