Do Dogs Need Corrections? What Actually Works in Real Dog Training

Do Dogs Need Corrections? What Actually Works in Real Dog Training

In this episode of Dog Works Radio, Michelle Forto cuts through the noise on one of the most debated topics in dog training: corrections. We shift the focus from internet arguments to what actually works with real dogs and real families. Teaching always comes first. Clarity beats confusion. Great training builds understanding, not just stops unwanted behavior.
