Answering Justin Rigney’s Question

Описание: Thank you Justin Rigney for your question and for the thoughtful compliments. While we haven’t had the opportunity to meet, I always appreciate engaging in real discussions with fellow trainers. Your question touches on a common point of curiosity, and sometimes misunderstanding, about our E-FLO system, specifically regarding “drive and desire”.

Many trainers approach this topic from a defensive stance, suggesting that our methods might inhibit a dog’s natural drive. I don’t believe that’s your intent, and I see this instead as a valuable chance to clarify.

Often, what we demonstrate is simply unfamiliar. The outcomes can be so distinct from conventional expectations that it leads to questions about their authenticity, as if the results are too good to be true.

In this case our dogs can also appear to lack energy or desire giving the impression that we have “killed drive” with too much control and “rushing the process”

To address your question with full transparency, I’ve created a detailed video breakdown. I believe that when introducing concepts that challenge industry norms, the obligation is on us to provide clear proof and validation. “Talk is cheap,” which is why I’ve included direct video references using a variety of dogs (ages can be seen on each video of the dog) within the discussion to prove every point.

This video breaks down the behaviors you observed, explains the principles behind them, and demonstrates how the E-FLO system allows us to modify behaviors in a way that fundamentally redefines control and expression. This video is designed for those genuinely interested in understanding a different perspective that challenges many influential training myths.

Thank you again, Justin, for the respectful dialogue and the opportunity to shed light on our work. I hope this detailed explanation is helpful for you and anyone else seeking to understand the methodology.
