Your interactions with your dog literally shape their brains!
When one relays on fear based discipline, they trigger physical stress responses in a dog that will HENDER the dogs ability to LEARN. When a dog experiences stress, stress hormones are released. One chemical released is cortisol. High levels of cortisol can damage brain cells in the hippocampus, which plays a major role in MEMORY and LEARNING. If you keep the dogs stress levels low, you can IMPROVE the dogs agility to LEARN.
