Hey, there, Twirlbird, take a deep breath. We are all respectful of each other here, even when we have differing opinions. We do not require folks to post "qualifications" though people who have been here for a while know that Carrie has done a lot of work with animals. Carrie stated in another post : "I am an animal behaviourist, canine behaviourist and canine psychologist...I started out as a dog trainer."

Read http://PetoftheDay.com/cgibin/ultima...c&f=2&t=000233 to understand more of her particular viewpoints on dog training methods.

And DO try to be polite, please. Just because someone agrees with someone else doesn't mean she or he holds no opinions of his or her own.

Now, for anyone who is confused about what this thread is even about, please see http://PetoftheDay.com/cgibin/ultima...2&t=000240&p=2 . There advice is asked for, and given.
