To train a dog you need it to be not under stress so that it can learn.
Out of the " zone" the dog been calm and paying attention to the handler and therefor no " BUMP" be needed, nor a choke.

When under stress how is your memory?
What do you remeber say after a car accident?
Usually not much niether does the dog.

How can you work on the issue of the dog attacking other dogs, unless you bring in another dog? The dog was just fine until the other dog came into the picture. He tried to get the dog to refocus by bumping him. Well the dog refocused allright. He refocused on Cesar. I'm sure every trainer has misread a dog if they work with enough of them.
