The BT interview contained so many errors and outright lies that I couldn't even begin to catalogue them. That this jerk is intimidated by the words "positive reinforcement" should tell any viewer that he has no ideas about modern training methods. Methods that have been proven in the lab with fish, fowl and mammals as well as in zoos, with blind dogs, military dogs, mine detectors and competition obedience trainers..
That's exactly how I feel, too.
He's a relic from a different time who's methods do more harm than good.
