The Dominance Theory is a Load of Crap: What Old-School Training Is & Why It Doesn’t Work


Listen Later

In this episode, Lisa breaks down the outdated dog training methods that just don’t work—and why it’s time to leave them in the past. From dominance theory to harsh corrections and the "no treats" mentality, she explains how these techniques can damage your relationship with your dog and what to do instead.

🔹 Lisa talks about:

  • Why dominance and alpha theory are based on flawed science
  • How punishment creates fear, not respect
  • The truth about prong collars, choke chains, and leash corrections
  • Why positive reinforcement works better (and faster!)
  • The myth that dogs should obey “just because”
  • How to build trust and cooperation with your dog instead


It’s time to ditch the outdated methods and train smarter, not harder. Tune in now! 🎧🐶
