Gina, and everyone else,
what my point was and is is that no matter how philosophies differ we all have common ground. We share in common different techniques all employed for the same cause; to have dogs that behave according to our rules.
Then why not just say that, and leave it at that?
Any pretense to baiting was only on the side of the observers, none was intended. There are those, especially in this section that feel free to bash others for their beliefs and methods-using snide remarks and off handed comments. If I can have a heated debate over some extreme issues without snide comments or off handed remarks then I think the same can be done here in this section.
I didn't really care why you asked the question, and thought I'd answer it, but perhaps the others are on to something. The negative undertones of that statement have me wondering. "There are those, especially in this section" sounds like finger pointing to me. And as someone else stated, that highway travels both directions.
So remember folks, whether you adhere to the principles taught by CM or Leerburg, Clothier or whomever you'd name as your "favorite" trainer, we all have in common the same goals and ends.
Again, you could have just said that, so then, what's there left to say? Instead you expected what? Us to understand your hidden meaning to the question? Because actually I'm not sure what your meaning has to do with the question now.
If this is interpreted as baiting then some of you have alot to learn about discourse.
Whatever, you asked, I answered. Done.
