Okay, back for more scrapping.
Read a little on CAT, looks interesting. It actually looks like the "gypsy horse break" thing I was talking about before.
Watched the husky vid with Cesar. I think that's past my abilities to analyze. I do see that the husky did not turn on Cesar until Cesar kicked / tapped / nudged / sprinkled the dog with fairy foot dust
. Why not use a gentler technique and save yourself the cost of a new shirt? It's also well known that dogs often get more aggressive when they feel restrained (like, if you have a leash tied up behind your ears). I have made that mistake myself. I was walking a dog-aggressive boxer, and these people with their dog ran up to greet me and tell me how beautiful she was. My error, I should have warned them away, but I wasn't quick enough, and I pulled the boxer's leash tightly to keep him under control. That prompted him to snap at the other dog. I felt awful, hopefully lesson learned for me.
My guess is that Cesar wished he put a muzzle on the dog. I'm also guessing that another trainer would put much less pressure on a dog to begin with. VS generally starts by walking the aggressive dog well behind a calm one, and gradually letting the dog sniff the front dog's butt. Then maybe they start walking side by side, but 50 feet apart. If the dog begins to aggress, she takes a time out. Gradually, the dogs get closer and closer, until the dog can tolerate face to face contact.
