Exposing the Trash Science of Dog Training Agenda
To some the truth is an insult, to others life from the dead. –Gary Amirault
The purpose of this page is to lift the curtain on the ideology which is being marketed to the public as the science of dog training. While there are many layers to this ideology the main issue is what it represents as a whole at the relational level for the majority of those needing help to overcome behavior issues with their dogs. What I show very clearly is that this ideology puts the majority of dog owners at very high risk of failure. One of the deceptions is that many go through the motions of training without even realizing that physical response is not always representative of relational change. Those promoting learning theory as the second coming don't get this or see it because they have sold their souls to this ideology. Many actually define who they are through this ideology. The issue of physical response and relational disconnect is one of the big problems that is happening between dogs and owners. In my book, Mind and Body Kinetics, I discuss this issue at length. The reasons why so many are not willing to trade this ideology for truth is because it has morphed into a belief system. Considering that 4 millions dogs are being destroyed every year in North America and the shelters are filled to capacity the hard truth needs to be put out front and center. Those who are misrepresenting the dominance issue while exploiting learning need to be challenged and held accountable. It is clear that the group how are promoting this agenda are not willing to put the interests of dogs ahead of their ideology. It is the only way things are going to get better. I am probably the first trainer who can show the relational connection issue and what it represents at this level.
As an self described expert on understanding the issues of relational connection with how it influences a dog's decision making process I can clearly show that many are not only misrepresenting the issue of dominance but also exploiting learning theory at the same time. The break down points of learning theory are consistently predictable based on using relational connection as a model. The ability to discern the type of influence taking hold within any given learning model only comes from understanding this connection issue. I show the various relational interplays which reveal the influence of this connection on the decision making process of the dog.
Further I would argue that it is impossible for those promoting the science of dog training to accept what I show based on already established tenants and positions regarding the core issues of dominance and learning. The campaign by this group to bully their way beyond the inconsistencies and problems while exploiting the feelings and emotions of dog owners only serves to support my position. While my goal continues to be to help individual dog owners overcome their behavior issues and problems my other focus is to shine the light on the reason why so many are still struggling with their relationships with their special pack members. My hope is that the information I provide will open the eyes to what has been happening and focus attention to this problem.

When it comes to nature there are no accidents or coincidences. The goal of this page is to expose the mess of what has been happening in the dog training world for far too long. Dog owners are being sold down the tubes by trainers who have aligned themselves with the type of methodology and relational connection / bond that is causing high rates of failure for dogs and owners. I clearly show how learning theory is being exploited while the relational connection issue is being mocked, ignored and dismissed by those who are on their knees worshiping these ideas as the second coming to dog training. The issue of dominance is being misrepresented and exploited as a cheap marketing tool by this group to draw in the masses. It is like fishing with dynamite based on societies current attitudes towards dogs. It is clear that this branch of science is not walking hand in hand with truth. Those involved are demanding validation while attempting to use intimidation, exploitation and popularity, based on exploiting feelings and emotions of owners via the dominance issue, to bully their critics into silence. My hope is that as more begin to make the relational connection they will start to seriously question the motives of those pushing this corrupt agenda. I make it clear they are the biggest reason why dogs are being given up on and destroyed based on the type of connection this methodology aligns with. I am probably the first trainer to expose this methodology for what it represents and the negative impact it is having on meeting a dog's nature needs. As you read the material provided and watch my videos I ask that you keep an open mind and attempt to be objective when assessing this information.
The following questions expose the many inconsistencies, problems and contradictions of this anti-dominance and learning based agenda. Those promoting this agenda are not only overselling this ideology but in many cases are misrepresenting the facts. A dog's decision making process is influenced at the relational level and I clearly show this point by point. This is in fact the primary motivating and influencing agent. Everything else is secondary. The following questions are designed to not only show that this is in fact true but also expose the confusion and delusion of learning based ideology. The consistencies of the inconsistencies of learning ideology reveal this relational influence. The breakdown points can been seen when you connect these relational dots. When I have asked the following questions to so called experts who promote this trash science agenda most either refused to answer, were vague, demanded evidence, misdirection or launched into personal attacks against myself. I want to be clear, if you don't understand the relational connection issue than you certainly won't know what dominance represents or how a dog's decision making process is impacted at the unwanted behavior level. I clearly show a 60-80 percent failure rate within systems of training which elevate these ideas to a point where the type of psychology and connection being promoted interferes in the role changing process.
Question: Explain how a dog's decision making process is influenced within your learning based model ?
Question: What do unwanted behavior issues represent ?
Question: Explain learning theory and how a dog's decision making process is impacted using learning at the unwanted behavior level ?
Question: When physical response and a relational disconnect happens what is the cause ? When behavior issues fail to change even after you hand out a certificate for the owner and dog successfully going through the motions of training what is the cause ?
Question: Define and qualify the type of influence happening between dog and owner within your learning based model ?
Question: Define instinctive behavior and how your learning model is used to diminish this drive ?
Question: Define the term dominance. Does leadership play a role within learning model ? Explain the difference between leadership and dominance.
Question: Can you explain why approx 90 percent of those who need help overcoming behavior issues are women ?
Question: Can you explain why those who have established a more emotional bond and connection with their dogs also have the most behavior issues and problems ?
Question: Explain how counter conditioning impacts the decision making process of the dog both specifically to the target as well as impacts the dogs overall decision making process ?
Question: When a different association is established with the specific target and the dog continues to express similar behavior in other situation explain the reasons for this and how learning theory is used to correct this ?
Question: Do you think a dog's decision making process is impacted at a relational level or connection level ?
Question: Can you explain why assertive and confident personality types have more success using the learning model than those who are more emotional and establish emotional bonds with their dos ? Ie compare success rate with general public and law enforcement when learning is used within these groups.
Question: Why are behaviorists medicating dogs for fear and anxiety issues when these issues are being resolved within other systems of training ?
Question: What is the depth of the connection dogs share with humans and other dogs ?
When you begin to gain insight into the depth of the mind and body connection it becomes clear why behaviorists can’t answer any of the questions and nothing makes sense. They contradict themselves when attempting to explain instinctive behavior / fixed action patterns and what dominance and leadership represent or the role they play relationally. Within their own minds and from the surface their self validating model will appear to make sense until you begin to focus in on the inconsistencies and the higher fail rates. The psychology they have aligned with through humanization of the dog and human relationship is the real problem. Strength and weakness comes through how owners are thinking and connecting through this shared mind and body connection. Behaviorists must ignore, separate and severe this connection to make it fit into their twisted model of training. When behavior issues remain then meaningful influence has not taken hold, period.
I clearly show how the decision making process of the dog is influenced via relational connection. There is no doubt. How we think and connect at that level has a direct impact on behavior.
If
you are interested in reading more regarding this issue I have two
books which will help provide more in depth answers. The Mind and Body
Connection and Mind and Body Kinetics. Both of these books are
available via this website.
