Toxic Positivity

The Quirky Dog

This week, Jess and Scott discuss toxic positivity in the dog training world. While positive reinforcement training offers many benefits, the dog training public frequently voices concerns over effectiveness of this methodology as well as the judgement that comes from members of the purely positive camp.

What is toxic positivity as it relates to dog training?

Why do some dogs and owners seem to respond better to balanced training?

Where can owners look for support if they feel their training has become toxic?
