I find it hard to believe that there are any vets who would promote the method of housetraining in the article. There is a lot in the piece that I do agree with, however. http://www.examiner.com/dog-training-and-behavior-in-orlando/the-milgram-experiment-and-how-it-relates-to-dog-training Ripley & his Precious

And in this experiment the authority figure was someone that they did not have a relationship with and one that would not have any effect of their life what so ever......... Imagine it with someone you respect....... Or someone that could really adversely affect your life if you did not cooperate. It's scary. Betty (Waldron) Mathena http://www.littlerivercanine.com

Lauren Jeffery Webboard User Reg: 01-16-2010 Posts: 1389 Loc: Offline	I had a really bad obedience class experience that in my gut I knew what I was seeing was really wrong, but because of the trainer being considered a real master of dog training I still questioned myself. I ended up opting to just loose the money invested and not go back. My owns dog's reaction to watching what happened in the class is what ultimately made the decision for me. She was obviously really stressed by it, and she wasn't even the dog who was subjected to the nasty training.
