Yeah, for my dog it's actually a LOT more stressful and causes much more anxiety. I can even make a video to "prove" it, lol!
One of the problems with Aversives is that the type that works and the intensity that works vaires form dog to dog. We know that, it is also well documented.
Cadbury was nearly immune to physcial Aversives, i broke correction collars on him
Luci is a very well contained little madam thank you, but does respond to TO's. I have had to use very few in her life. I have more withdrawn poetintial reward such as walked out of a ring in the middle of an excercise where she ws choosing to work the birds rather than the seekback article.
Sam is possibly quite pain tolerant. He doesn't notice much. TOs are very effective with im.
It is normal for humans to seek the R+ that they get from an Aversive again and again, but most aversives habituate with too much use. Aagin this is well documented
