[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 296537, member: 1161"] I just wanted to add my nope, don't think his methods are too harsh or abusive. His methods are based on how dogs interact with each other in a pack. My sis is huge into dogs, breeds & shows for both confirmation and obedience, and she's had to roll and scruff dogs a time or two. To a person not used to a "dog pack" method of training it looks harsh and scary, but it doesn't hurt the dog, just puts them in their place letting them know you are the boss and stronger. At a dog show with her once, a friend of hers was there with an Irish Wolfhound, and my sis told me her friend had to roll and scruff that dog because they can be dominant and you have to be boss. LOL yeah, the dog was a HORSE. I think dogs are like teens, they'll test the boundaries to see if you're still boss of them or not. [/QUOTE]
