redirecting focus of the dog by a word or short tug of the leash at the moment it's needed is "punishment", then we are not communicating in

all strive for & Cesar does it very well.

My dear, "positive punishment" is an academic term used to describe "added punishment." And, yes, in academic trems, anything even slightly negative is deemed punishment. I'm sorry you do not care for academic language, but that's what we must use for clarity when we get into such discussions.

BTW, Chica, thanks for pulling those quotes. I had heard several of them but no longer had access to the source.
