| Eph94, was that in response to my recommendations?
Both those trainers use NILIF type programs.
I don't consider NILIF tyranny, myself.
We all have to work, humans and dogs. Some beings just do better with more work on their hands!
Kudos to you for managing a dog of "shaky temperament," btw, and shame on the humans who bred and/or nurtured that in temperament in the first place.
