The one episode I watched I was in complete shock and I never will watch it again. The episode I watched was with a pit bull, yes I will admit he was very out of control. He was dog aggresive (what I could remember and I am pretty sure he has shown aggresion with people.) But the way he acted with this dog sickend me in my stomach. In my mind negativly touching the dog and cornering the dog is one of the worst things you could do to a (fear aggreisve dog). Then he had his young son do the same thing, and I could not belive he would actually put his son in that situation. I don't care if the dog was the nicest dog in the world, you do not put your child in that situation.
Yes I will admit some dogs his methods will work, but with a lot of dogs, mine included, my dogs would lose all there confidence and would just crumble. My flat-coat when she was young, was VERY aggresive with men, but with the clicker and A LOT of praise, she now loves men and I am proud to call her a excellent therapy dog. I have a strong feeling what he would have done with Zoey and the thought scares me.
