Behavior modification has been around since, oh, when, the cro-magnon times? Move along, folks, nothing new to see here! ;-)

Spaying or neutering is a good start.

I prefer to call it; applying the board of education to their seat of knowledge.

First thing that popped into my mind when reading the article was rolling up a newspaper or magazine and applying it as necessary to modify behavior! ;-) Not PC in this ‘don’t correct your children or we’ll claim it’s child abuse’ world we live in, but like the Bible says, spare the rod...! ;-)

I'm hoping that you didn't develop a particular fondness for the kibble....

I don’t think that people would have looked favorably to my putting my kids on a leash and yanking on it to teach them to heel or sit.

The guys from South Park are way ahead of the curve on this. Cartman driving the super-nannies nutso, and then getting trained by Caesar Milan (the dog whisperer), is a classic episode.

Only tried a dog biscuit once. It was too dry.

"Only tried a dog biscuit once. It was too dry."

This is why Cheez-Whizz was invented.
