I'm going to jump in here and say, I absolutely agree with correction! I do not allow my dogs to behave badly, just as I would not allow my children to behave badly. Usually a very stern voice is good, but occasionally, I need to be firmer. My dogs are happy, healthy, loving dogs who know their place. It is important for a dog to know its place in the pack.

I also make my dogs do things they do not want to do. When I am grooming, they must stand still and allow me to cut toe nails, brush teeth, etc. They don't like it, but it is for their safety and health, so I make them do it. They know if I say do it, then they will have to do it, like it or not. And they still love me to pieces!
