Jessica Jahiel's HORSE-SENSE: Classical methods = abusive old-style training?

Jahiel's reply makes a lot of sense to me. The feeling some trainers give you is that there is only one way, their way, and otherwise you are scuzzy dog-bait. That's what this blog is about.... parsing it apart finding out what's good and what's not good.

I was thinking about that last post.... you can let them think they have a choice but what you really want is for them to think that your suggestion is the best option. That's the trust thing, isn't it?
