Thread: Is the Deer Dog Blueprint any good?

That’s my opinion based on what I have read and experienced so far - happy to have others disagree with me as i’d rather not engage in training debate - often the demise of dog sections on forums.. lol

100% man. If a dog has gone toilet inside, it’s your fault, nothing to do with them. You need to scold yourself, not the dog. Dogs don’t associate the telling off with what they’ve done 8 hours ago. The reason they “act guilty” or cower is based on your body language and tone. Nothing to do with them pissing inside.
