An analysis says using
negative commands can result
in long-term stress for your pooch.

in the journal 'BioRxiv.'.
Besides stress, it adds that
a dog's cognitive abilities
can also be affected.

in Portugal were put into two groups.

with rewards coming in the form of treats.

go through multiple stress tests.
In one, negatively-trained dogs approached
bowls of food slower than the others,
