5) AVSAB position statement on dominance:
Has someone told you to roll your dog on its back for bad behavior?...Or, you should eat first before your dog to be the "pack
leader?"...Or, if your dog gets on the furniture or bed he/she is being "dominant?" This all stems from the "dominance
theory" of behavior modification which, despite being discredited years ago through scientific studies of canines, is
still being promoted and practiced by some trainers, owners, and even TV shows!
The American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) has recently released a position statement
on the topic. Click here to read the statement and find out why this out-dated and erroneous methodolgy is ineffective and even dangerous.
