For the charging out the door Caesar just taught you to teach your dog to stay so far away from the door untill after you opened it and shut the door. There were no corrections. For walking there are corrections but I dont use a collar I walk with a harness so the correction is mild. I can see how a collar is needed for bigger dogs though. My dogs arent fearful. I just know I am an average joe person and I tried some of his methods and they worked for me where using treats and rewarding for some of the things wasnt working. My dogs well behaved and I have taught them all kinds of tricks also using treats as rewards so I also see the benefit of positive reinforcement. Also I wanted too say using your hand as if you are biting the dog with it does work to keep them from biting I have done it.
