This is our near-weekly segment where we list all the links we’ve shared on Twitter<\/a>. \u00a0It’s always a big post! So grab a coffee and prepare yourself for some serious reading.<\/p>\n

Tweet of the Week<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lot of what Roger Abrantes writes is a bit over my head, I admit. It takes a lot of concentrating to read his articles, and I do intend to, at some point, re-write in a simplistic way his latest blog post: “Dog training – let reason prevail over force!<\/a>” He provides very sensible, rationale, and believable arguments on dominance in dog training. Until I find the time to para phrase this blog post, I suggest you have a read of the original.<\/p>\n
