Those are mine too! Using one or four quadrants is a waste of time whether it be on humans or dogs, doesn't matter! Whoever thought it was intelligent to see a manner of conditioning or modifying behaviour, thought "well you know I think it'll genuinely improve the way we interact with dogs, to drop the things making positive reinforcement rewarding to the dog, then apply it to absolutely everything they do," was either very impulsive (coming from a person with ADHD, and the old one not the new one) or very stupid.
Now, since on average people typically know next to nothing about dogs, or psychological theories. So they would have to trust trainers in general when trying to learn, until proven otherwise.
It's totally putting our beloved pets, through so many unnecessary health problems, hell day to day, attacks and fighting, abuse, panic and anxiety, as well as eithenasia! No animal should eat constantly besides maybe a cow, everything in life has a consequence or force, and never has there ever been a behaviour conditioning theory that works in a cookie cutter fashion successfully on humans or dogs.
Also:
-yes dogs need grain and should not be living off corn or really eat it at all.
- pitbulls are indeed cute but can be a dangerous breed not for first time owners. They were made to quite literally bite and do damage and not ever stop until they win or die. Period! If you cannot be consistent, stable, and stand your ground to a potentially very scary animal that is going to push everything including your patience past its limit. Buy a lab or a retriever they are wonderful dogs.
- dog training is Infact expensive if it is going to work, veterinary behaviourists are significantly more (typically costing several thousands)
- you absolutely don't have to spay or neuter, leave naturally occurring things be, they need their hormones!just be sure to train your dogs and please just leave breeding to breeders. Popular = over bred and poorly bred, meaning expensive health and psychological issues.
