    9. How Force-Free Can We Be?

    The definition of "force-free dog training" is a highly contentious one. In this episode, Claire and Ari bring some research to the table, and discuss specifically the creation and use of the LIMA and Humane Hierarchy methodologies. Also brought up is whether service dog training is possible with minimally aversive techniques.
