<description>&lt;p&gt;Annie reads a post from Denise Fenzi&amp;#39;s page that sparked some interesting comments on labels in the world of dog training. Some dog trainers are considerate about the use of some punishment in training and others work to avoid it at all costs. And then there are trainers who simply don&amp;#39;t know what they&amp;#39;re doing at all. Like... Dog Daddy. He calls himself &amp;quot;balanced&amp;quot; but no educated pro trainer would give him that label. Maybe the real problem is that to non-professionals, what this Insta-celeb doing is all they know about dog training. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;TOPICS DISCUSSED:&lt;br/&gt;- Frustrations with the dog training industry&lt;br/&gt;- Divide between different training methods&lt;br/&gt;- The problem of most people&amp;#39;s lack of understanding of dog body language&lt;br/&gt;- The weirdness of a spectacle-like approach to dog training&lt;br/&gt;- Importance of focusing on the dog&amp;#39;s well-being&lt;br/&gt;- Potential for more animal training entertainment that actually shows off the magic of positive reinforcements&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;KEY TAKEAWAYS:&lt;br/&gt;- Dog training should focus on the well-being and training effectiveness&lt;br/&gt; of dogs rather than creating a spectacle.&lt;br/&gt;- Understanding dog body language is crucial for preventing dog bites &lt;br/&gt;and improving communication with dogs.&lt;br/&gt;- The divide between different training methods should be approached &lt;br/&gt;with open dialogue and growth in mind.&lt;br/&gt;- Strength-based training can be effective in both academic and dog training settings.&lt;br/&gt;- The well-being and safety of dogs and the public should be the &lt;br/&gt;priority in dog training.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;REFERENCES:&lt;br/&gt;- Denise Fenzi&amp;#39;s Facebook page: &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/denise.fenzi" class="linkified" target="_blank"&gt;https://www.facebook.com/denise.fenzi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;GIVEAWAY:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;This month&amp;#39;s giveaway: Dog Listener hat.
