Long story short, this man is saying he is an ex marine dog trainer. This situation has got my GF and I furious and I want to make sure I am not crazy for this suggested training advice. I love my dog and could never imagine doing any of these things to "train him" or in my mind, scare him out of doing anything.
We have a GSD that is sometimes very excited and anxious and this is some of the awful advice;
He has told me to hit him on the back, and nose when he is doing something bad or won't drop a ball.
If he is barking at the fence he instructed me to shoot him in the back with a BB gun? Like what??
He told me if a dog is digging holes, to drown it until it "learns its lesson"
He also threw a rock at my dogs back to get him to stop barking.
All of this made me sick to hear and It can't be normal, right? Especially if he was an ex k9 trainer for the marines? Unless they beat the #### out of their dogs.
Just confused and looking for answers.
Thanks!
