My sense in reading the various training journals and the reactivity thread is that positive reinforcement training involves a lot more than just relying on a treat bag and a clicker. Maybe sometimes the impression given is that a treat here and a click there is enough, and that's maybe why BullyGirl80 is questioning the approach. From what I can tell, positive reinforcement training and operant conditioning involve a much deeper understanding of how dogs think and behave and that the treats and clickers are just some of the tools in the toolbox.
