Shawnee Dog Trainer shares a great article on “Rank and Dominance Matter When Trying to Teach Dogs”
This is a really interesting article… As you know, I lean toward the positive reinforcement side of dog training, and it drives me nuts when people rely on the idea of dominance or alpha dog theory to train dogs. However, I spent 4 1/2 long years at the University of Kansas getting a psychology degree and understand that in the world of learning theory, dominance in a matter of speaking does exist, and in the case of this research, some really interesting things are uncovered. I think more research is necessary, but I definitely think this article is worth a read!!!!!!
