I agree with Erin completely on this one, but I also agree that to each his own. Do I want Georgie to be scared of me absolutely not, do I think that barking at the UPS man is sooo terrible NO he is a DOG. However I do tell him to stop barking and he does. As a matter of fact when the cable people came last week they were amazed at how quickly he stops barking when Momma says "No barking." He is very well trained and not one time have I hit him, pulled on his leash or used any physical techniques. I am by no means an expert but I don't want my dog to learn to respect me out of fear.
