I think Fred has a very good point...just saying "no" or stop it!" without an immediate consequence is completely pointless, because the dog isn't quite sure what he's doing wrong. If someone comes to the door and your dog jumps and barks and spins in circles, then you tell him "no," how is he supposed to know what out of his multiple behaviors that you find undesirable? Also, it's important to remember that the dog doesn't realize he's misbehaving, because that's what dogs do.

@jeff85988 but, what will your dog do when you tell him "no"? default to a sit most likely/ i understand your reasoning, but to the dog, i think that telling him "no" would make him go, "ok...so...what else do i know? how about sit?" therefore, telling him to sit would become his default behaviour when he knows that jumping isn't what he should be doing, no? i think this is just simplifying it, and removes the "no" command, which is probably followed by the "sit" command. no?

If your dog is jumping on someone or chewing on chords or a boot or if he's about to jump up on the couch and you command him to "sit" or "drop" or "down" without ever saying "no" hes not going to learn he SHOULDN'T be doing that action in the first place. He may follow the command to the letter but he doesn't necessarily know he's not supposed to be jumping on the guest. My idea would be NO first then a command until he learns NO means he cant do that and needs to stop trying.

As he was introducing why "no" doesn't work, I thought about what they teach us in college for teacher's. Instead of saying "Don't do that!" to kids, it's much more effective to say "Why don't you do x right now?" Write rules in a positive way, because if you say "Don't run in the hallways," you'll have kids that will skip or hop around in the hallway. I feel like I do this with my dog, though I'm sure I say "no," too. Bear is such a mild mannered dog.

As a professional dog trainer I find Mr. Hassen's discussion interesting and admire his responses to feedback. (Why in the world people feel a need to insult someone who has just shared their expertise eludes me) I teach my clients to address unwanted behavior by giving a positive/affirmative command to do something else, for reasons mentioned in this video and also because it reinforces the training relationship."No"is definitely in my toolbox, but I explain the importance of timing...

You have to have a generic "no" command. You simply cannot train your dog for every scenario you may encounter. "no" is quick and is in any good trainers toolbox.

Are you willing to debate this in public? I think by not teaching no. You are not allowing your dog to live up to full potential. I do not train the (No bark, No jump, No bite, etc) Even your philosohy should understand that No means No. Whatever it is your are doing at this moment.. Stop it. The problem I have with people is they underestimate their dogs intelligence.

Hi! Well, I've never been stumped on this yet, but I will give you 1 shot at it so make it good. :-)
Give me any potential scenario on the planet you can think of, and I will simply tell you what I would do instead of telling him no. I thought I was clear in it's vagueness, but go ahead.

lol You have already taken this off path. I did not say your way wouldn't work. You stated in the video that your way was the only way. That dogs think "No" is vague. I also do not teach the "stay" command.If I tell you sit or down, Really. What are your other options. (Sorry for the side track) Anyway. On an average daily walk with your dog and they want to pick up a stick or smell a blade of grass with them olfactor recepters. .

I will have to listen again. My apologies if I said it's the 'Only' way as you state. There are lots of ways, but I gave my reasons and stick to them. Sounds like your way is working as well and you have your reasons, so it's great for both of us.
