There it is in a nut shell.
Totally the whole point.
You can not teach a dog anything while it is under stress.
They can not learn it will not stick.
They are doing everything out of fear or stress and under non stress they will not remeber or the stress kicks in and a dog under stress lives a markedly shorter life... Yes so does an aggressive one. Stress kilss. Cortisaol.
I said this better before but the post poofed yet again. must remeber to copy and then send.
As for shoke coller stuff my complete dislike of his using them comes from the knowledge he pushes a dog to a directed bite and that was left on the cutting room floor and if it had not been for the governing body that is a watch dog for animal use in films and TV we would not know that he is abusing animls and has been asked by them to stop.
We do not kow in the clip posted here what is on the editing room floor at all. We do not know if things went as bad as the other time.
That he covers up and does nto admit to his mistakes is not for the betterment of himself or the dogs he works with.
Here is an open letter by a leading world PHD Behavioiurist on shoke collers
