There is so much more to learning than most owners realize. Learning should not be scary or painful. Modern dog training is based on science and takes the learner’s emotions into account.
Aversive dog training methods rely on force and intimidation, both negatively impact a dog's brain chemistry and welfare.
This treatment of dogs causes stress, leading to the release of cortisol and adrenaline, which can result in anxiety and fear. Over time, chronic stress may impair the dog's ability to learn, develop trust, and form healthy bonds with their guardian.
Increased stress also suppresses serotonin production, a neurotransmitter crucial for mood regulation, ultimately diminishing the dog's overall well-being and happiness.
