I found that article to be very informative. Thank you for posting it.
I, for one, could never use this method. Buddy is too big and for
sure I would have gotten bitten at some point. Instead I did all the
other thing's written and still do on a daily basis. This method
may work on a 3lb dog but in no way will it work on a 16lb dog.
Common sence tells you that. I find it truly amazing how I never
new there were rules on Alpha. Having a 86lbs GS and a 22lb. Terrier
I never had any kind of problems in my household. A dog was a dog
and that was it. Part of the family and cared for as such.
I get a 6.5lb Yorkie and I have to re-educated myself because he
want's to take over my life
