WILL THERE BE BOUNDARY LINE CONFUSION?: I noticed that Don Sullivan’s DVDs include a lot of boundary line training. Won’t a dog be confused by setting a boundary, and then allowing the dog to cross that boundary?

No. Don Sullivan empowers you to teach your dog to respect the boundary lines and perimeters that you choose to establish. Your dog can learn that he has the right to remain at the edge of these boundary lines, without crossing over, and that he should not cross unless you invite him to accompany you.

It is up to you whether you ever allow your dog to go beyond any of these boundary lines. For example, you may incorporate a release command at the back doorway, but perhaps never at the front doorway. Or, when going for walks you may prefer to invite him to exit the house perimeter at the front gate, but never at the driveway.

Boundary line training is one of Don Sullivan’s advanced techniques, so caution must be exercised to maintain safety; and the technique must be properly and thoroughly implemented, using two or more people if necessary. If you do this then the results can be astounding! More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
