Not necessarily...that will depend on the dog and how much drive they have for whatever the transgression is. Most things (at this point) for my dog can be corrected with an "Ah! Ah!", but there are times when she's DRIVEN for "something" that she DOES need a proper correction.....and she gets it.
Is a correction just X measure of X thing, period? No. A correction can vary a lot in type and intensity, and should, depending on a dog's age, understanding through training of what's expected, and responsiveness to his/her handler in any given situation or for any given exercise.
