Children are children and dogs are dogs. You certainly cannot use the same training methods on canines as you use on humans and I would not compare the two.. Dogs trained using intimidation tactics are not dogs I would ever trust in the long run. It may have 'worked' for you, but a fearful dog can become an aggressive dog given an unforseen trigger. Ask anyone that has tried to retrain any of the many dogs that end up in rescue due to the use of these types of 'training' techniques.
