Crossing over to positive training can be frustrating. Abandoning old techniques for new is uncomfortable. Especially when you aren’t good at the new stuff. Dog trainer Eric Brad has found that sticking with positive training is well worth the effort for the rewards that come later.
Back when I was crossing over to positive training, it seemed like every time I turned around another technique I used to use was now a bad idea. I had to keep running back to books or asking questions of positive trainers online to find appropriate alternatives. But the answers were there and my new habits developed quickly. But not as quickly as my relationship with my dogs improved! It was well worth the extra work.
A transcript of the main text of The Crossover Files – Positively Frustrating Dog Training is available at the Life As A Human online magazine website. You can visit Life as a Human to find this and other articles.
