I agree, Brittany, you are open to new ideas, and I'm sure that's part of your tremendous success with Jackson. I find you very inspiring.
I took Zak to mean that you are always responsible for your dog's behavior, because as a human being you have so many more resources to control the situation. I am sure that there are many dogs out there who, unattended, will eat cat poop or get into the garbage no matter what. If you cannot TRAIN the problem away, you have to MANAGE it - make the litter box and garbage can inaccessible, etc.
