I'm hearin and feelin it.
Yes the prong will go in the closet. Positive reinforcement will be attempted from here on out. will just need to be more patient.
Appreciate the input and advice. thanks. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
These are my favorite books for positive training. Purely Positive Training and Advanced Schutzhund. I think both are available on this site and Amazon.
People do have some Opposition reflex, just not at as great a level as dogs. I use it for the first 2 obedience lessons I do with people. It is where I teach how to make a correction and how to walk and chew gum at the same time.

Richard I hope you are good at what you do for a living. I would hate to see you in the poor house after taking your little comedy show on the road. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
This is a great thread! I was just going to post a new topic until I saw this, now my pup is going to be 6 mo on the 19th this month, and I have been using motivotional training since 7 1/2 weeks old, and he is doing great with it, he is very excited to please me and tries real hard to follow the right road and does so most of the time.
My question really is when do you start with the prong, introducing correction into training to improve speed and reliability, I believe he knows the commands I have taught him now, he will comply 10 out of 10 times, just not for long "time" and far "distance" he actually is ok for small distractions. Is it time to introduce the Prong?
Also please see post in "Training Tools" sub section "Prong Collar" sub section "Puppy Prong" for my other related problem. I thank you.
