Re: Use of spray bottles in training

The word for it is aversive, but I'm not sure it's any better or worse than a collar correction, oir an e-collar, or a citronella collar, which I have used and won't likely use again.

I remember one of my first questions on here was about spray bottle for garbage diving...it was actually in a dog training book that I read it. It was suggested to me that the dog would STILL likely eat garbage if I wasn't around so making it inacessible was a better way to handle it. This has worked quite well - in fact now we have a garbage closet.
