It's been bugging me for awhile and i know many of us have delt with this. How do you handle people hitting their dog and using punishment methods that refuse to see any other way.
I'm talking about the mindset that they dog must obey or they are in trouble. How can you help them understand how positive reinforcement is a much better way to go. Especially when they refuse to see the evidence supporting positive reinforcement training ? Do you just give up despite the fact that they are punishing their dog for being scared ? Do you just wait to see what happens ?
It's frustrating !
