I agree with the not hitting an animal or acting in anger, however I establish dominance a little differently. On leash, it's an absurd amount of patience and absolute unwillingness to accept anything other than obedience if there's an outstanding command. I can say heel 50 times in a row (all in the exact same uncompromising tone of voice, no yelling), each with a mild correction (tug on the leash), and without us going anywhere. When the dog minds, there will be treats (for starters) and he/she will get to walk with a gradually increasing amount of slack leash. When they don't, they get no treats, a short leash, and a very boring interaction. Off leash, reverse time-out (ignoring them) and the occasional domination while wrestling gets the point across pretty well. Again, no hitting/hurting them. In both cases, treating does help establish dominance as well...when they know you have all the tasty morsels and they can only get them by submitting, it helps reinforce that you are alpha. Of course I've not had to work out a developed food aggression, so I can't be sure my methods would work. Off hand, I'd think patience, repetition, and only treating proper behavior would work...I suppose that's pretty much what you said. Blues, Dave So Dave....is that how you train everyone???

I used to date an ER nurse who liked few things more than bitching about some of the patients who would come in to the ER. I think the worst was one night when she was working triage and a gal came in wanting a pregnancy test. She pointed out that such a test could easily be obtained a block and a half down the street at Rite-Aid for about $15, instead of the $300+ to use the ER. The gal said, "Yeah, but my medical coupons from the state cover hospital visits but not over-the-counter supplies at the drug store." Blues, Dave Dave, As you know I am an ER nurse and am marrying an ER doc...we see the correct uses and abuses of the ER due to poor access, no access, or even the correct use of the ER. It is a vicious circle - that I hate to say will probably never change until the health care system crashes. People wonder why tylenol costs 4 $ in the ER - there are a lot of different factors. I know that our hospital tries to set up monthly payment plans and will even write off some of the cost of the visit. It does get frustrating however, when the above circumstance that you mention does occur - however, not everyone who comes in abuses the system; There are some patients that we see that have 50-100 visits a year...they come in with the same complaint every time....they can't get in to see their primary care physician....they don't like their pmd - they aren't taking care of them. There are some who have chronic illness who need to be seen. Its a coin toss on what your going to get.
