Fortunately the rest of the world has more sense
And these are feral dogs
Bill Koehler was actually fairly progressive in his day. The idea that you
would actually give the dog a chance to do something right (albiet not a
fair chance, since he'd never been trained at that point what to do) before
you punished him was a revolutionary idea in dog training at the time.
Today, we look at him as something as a barbarian, but it's kind of like the
biblical "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth." That was toned down from
the tradition of the time, which was if someone hurt you you'd take out his
whole family. You have to go through the stages before you can get to "turn
the other cheek."
