Luckily Vino is young and easier to train. But I do agree positive reinforcement does work and inducing fear into the dog does not. |
Anxiety medicine really doesn’t do much harm when really needed in fact when it’s really needed it can do more harm not to medicate. Callie had some issues awhile back like years ago and she only had to go on them for 3 months.
