I"m sure I read the book, and it may very well have been his quote, my point was there was far more to that book than that. ANd yes, even though a man i highly respect and admire made that statement I still ask you and him this,
Quote:
And why such extrememes??? Asserting dominance is never an issue??? I've read Ray's stuff before, he's done it, he knows it. I don't have the book in front of me to go find a quote, but if he had a dog killing sheep, what do you think he'd do?? Of course he wouldn't go towards asserting dominance causet that would be wrong??? Just a question. Would pressing his favorite working dog to the ground and snarling cause it didn't greet him in a way he liked be productive, hell no, that's pretty obvious, but making the quote like above as a reason for "dominance thoery" applications in dog training is short sighted.
