MYTH #23: My dog loves to give kisses when I hug him.

Licking that is accompanied by stress signals such as ears that are pulled down and back, tense facial muscles and whale eye can be misconstrued as a happy dog, when the dog is actually licking as a signal to “please stop”.

MYTH #22: Some breeds need a firmer hand.

If we can train lions, bears and whales with positive reinforcement, then why would ANY breed of dog need a “firmer hand”?

Rewards-based training works for any being. Don’t let a dog trainer try to convince you of anything different.

MYTH #21: A dog should be punished for growling. Growling is not acceptable behavior.

Growling is communication ... no more, no less.

A growl is the only vocal signal that your dog possesses to tell you that he is at his threshold of coping. Punishing this signal can result in a dog who escalates to a bite without a warning growl.
