Maybe you can try educate people like that first people you pick on Milan.

Where did I say leash correction is inhumane?
I have no idea why you're being so defensive about this. If you re-read my first post, I didn't say much except bring up the fact that I read a recent article about collars causing neck injuries (and no, it's not only cancer as you seem to interpret it as. It's a known fact that small dogs can and do get physical trachea and neck injuries from being pulled in that area - I have witnessed this firsthand when working as a vet assistant). I even mentioned in the first post that you said *light tugs* only, which was supposed to be a good thing.
Also, those experts are not MY experts. They are professional dog trainers who are called in to help rehabilitate dogs and work through issues.
