Hanging the dogs using choke chain

I was extremely troubled all day with what I saw during a training session this morning. The doggies were supposed to learn the “stay” command. As usual, they were all leashed with the white coloured training rope, told to sit and stay while their human companions slowly walk away. However some doggies didn’t quite get the idea and started following their human companions. To my horror, their human companions were told by the trainer to lift the doggies off the ground by their necks, legs suspended in the air with choke chain around their necks and drag them back to the spot where they were supposed to remain. There were 3 dachshunds and I saw one dachshund started choking and I could tell that they were all really really so frightened. As for the Lab that didn’t get the idea, it was too big and heavy for its human companion, so it was dragged over the shoulder with hind legs suspended in the air and choke chain round its neck as well.

Mummy shouted to them and asked them to stop hanging the doggies by their necks but they carried on. Buttercup told us that in the human’s world where capital punishment is still being practised, only humans who committed serious crimes like murder, espionage, treason, or rape were hanged in this manner till they choked to their death……. Those poor doggies certainly didn’t commit any serious crime. Hope those human companions will realize that by hanging their doggies, they may cause serious neck injuries to their doggies….

Let’s pray for safety of those doggies and positive reinforcement training method which is the latest thinking in North America and Europe.
