some folks wont go the distance with patience.. i havent used an ecollar on rufus- i probably wont as he is showing improvement. BUT- those folks that dont want to take the time and patience is what i am talking about - you know the ones, they must resolve the problem yesterday... i have tried too to talk to people about patience when training their dogs, but most of the JQ public doesnt want to hear that.. they want results yesterday.. and the jq public is not like all of us on this board, we know what we have to do we manage positively with our dogs, but the JQ Public isnt like us. (we are truly special:) awesome discussion !!

(we are truly special:) awesome discussion !! Compliance is a big problem, and a lot of people get dogs with the expectation they will be robots. If a problem pops up, they better be able to fix it with a one-step cure or they can't be bothered. That's another reason aversive collars/shock collars are so popular - they imply a quick fix. Whereas positive training requires some thought and planning.

Yup! People want instant gratification and don't have the patience or follow through.
