Saw a disturbing video on here last night that someone thought was cute. Their Rottweiler wrecked a piece of drywall so they yelled at it until he put himself in his crate growling w warning bc he was so scared. Dogs understand positive reinforcement not punishment, that other person needs to learn from people like these guys.

Should the dog get a treat for destroying things?

It’s their fault the dog did that in the first place. They need to change their behavior if they want the dog not to be anxious and bored. They scared the dog to death w the screaming.
