Yes, sounds like Cesar Millan's philosophy. I work with dogs and other animals. I use a very similar technique to Cesar.
Good that you spotted the bribery factor of some of what's out there as far as training methodologies.
I'd be happy to answer any specific questions.
Hi @Copper_Heart
Cesar Millan, "dog whisperer" perhaps?
Also, I used to know someone who went to the search&rescue unit locally because one of the rec. days they'd be walking their dogs with the interested dog owners.
