wha. indeed.
Methinks Dr Dunbar has his jealousy/resentment hat on... for attention he has (perhaps unfairly) not received and TV program he has not had

You might be right on that one.

A) I've never liked Dunbar. (WTF is up with him calling Martin Deeley a proponent of "gentle physical guidance" or whatever the heck he called it??? Martin Deeley is all about shock collars and "gentle physical guidance" is not exactly what his training method is about. He runs IACP and they gave CM an honorary membership; are pro shock, choke, and prong collars, and are ANYthing but humane.)

B) I love Bob Bailey and REALLY respect him. But I'm disappointed that he'd be involved in anything that would be lining CM's pockets.

C) I understand the idea that this could bring R+ training to the audience that is using CM techniques. But people have no idea what they are doing when they use CM techniques and I could see a mass confusion ensuing about what's positive and what's not. Or the whole thing going over peoples' heads in general; the show still depicts HORRENDOUS training methods.

D) This is just CM's way of appeasing people in the academic field and a way to make more money. IMO he's laughing all the way to the bank.

E) CM sucks. I would never buy ANYthing with his name on it. I don't care if doG was the contributing author of the entire book.
