Correcting before the Crime – Demonstrated

The idea of correcting before the crime is really just a matter of communicating with your dog while you still can. Dog’s spend most of their lives on a hair-trigger that, when pulled, creates extreme levels of arousal and excitement. Once that trigger has been pulled, it is very difficult for your dog to hear anything outside of its head. Once the trigger has been pulled any correction can actually just add to the intensity of the agitation that your dog is already feeling.
