Wow. Just Wow.

Different strokes for different folks.....I don't even train police dogs with 'force' or 'dominance' entering into the picture...and like a lot of gun dogs, they are pretty tightly wrapped.


Again, everyone has different methodologies....and their rationale for them.So please don't get offended.

I dont force a dog to do anything, when Im done training him, he's doing it because I made it a schittload of fun and he loves it. If indeed he doesn't love it( it happens...) Then you'll find me training his replacement, while he's lounging in a non-working home someplace.
During one of my seminars a gun dog woman piped up and asked " What do you do with a drug dog that wont work for you?"( This was also when she interjected something about force-fetching) And I answered simply "I find him a good home and get another dog"...
