[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 296255, member: 1550"] I'm baffled as to why so many people criticize him. They must have really passive, easy dogs. My pack is stubborn. My cocker alpha needed to be taken down a peg. He tried to bite the trainer. The trainer rolled him over and straddled over him, taking the scruff of his neck. I looked on in horror. MY BABY! The dog has been a good boy ever since the trainer has been here, but I have to work with all three of them every day. They usually bark like wolves when somebody comes to the door, but we worked on making them stay in the living room and not approach visitors. When my daughter's friend dropped by yesterday, rather than barking and growling and jumping on the door, they almost ignored her. It's mindboggling to me. As long as I'm not abusing my dogs, I like this method. It's easy and the dogs settle down fast. They simply would not listen to Victoria's methods. A treat won't entice them. They'll take the treat, but do what they want :happy:. difficult child dogs and difficult child kids! Gimme a break! :raspberry-tounge: [/QUOTE]
