You can alter behavior through what scientists call discomfort; a neutral stimulus (the tap) will not alter behavior. Your disapproval is really enough discomfort to offer, they can sense your feelings. |
You housebreak your way, I do mine my own way(without ever hurting my dogs). Do you have children? If so, did you ever spank them when they were bad? If you don't have children, when you do, are you going to let them do whatever they want and think time out might work?? give me a break
