Quoting chachi
"Putting a dog in a submissive position might be old school but it worked for my yorkie that bites when he has something and you try to take it away fom him. My husband flipped him over into a submissive position on his back and told him no and he hasnt tried to bite again. Maybe this just worked for my dog but I think the person who gave that advise didnt necessarily give bad advise either. I agree that some dogs need to see a behavioralist but owners also need something immediate that they can do to control the behavior."
Might does not make right.
Violence begets Violence or in most cases some form of aggression.
As You notice before my name was JMO it Is just that My thoughts, Take it or leave. I did not say anyone gave bad advice. How could I until now I have not read it as I do not read others on training advice unless I ask for the help with a question of my own.
How do you intend someone to learn if they do not see someone with the training to give a qualified knowledgeable opinion.
Not sure what your qualifications are but I know mine.
Feathers only get ruffled when others are not sure of that which they speak as I am sure I tend not to read others in the training questions area and also do not tend to get ruffled as much anymore in this area.
