Statement No. 12

Door dashing is a troublesome dog behavior. The best way to correct this is, patiently but firmly, to move him back away from the door by either carrying him (puppies and small breeds) or to push or pull him (larger breeds).

Umm, no.

Right again! People who physically move or force their dogs away from doors and other places do not really teach the dog to "accept" being left behind or being moved away from places or certain things. In fact, the dog's desire for getting out the door is usually raised, not lowered, by such physical positioning.
