Not until this moment. I posted a question that read “Who’d a thunk this would work on a dog!?” and in the details I explained how I’ve been at my wits end to get one of my dogs to stop barking so much. Last week I hit on the idea of praising the OTHER dog, who doesn’t bark, for not barking at those times….and it really seems to have worked. I ended the question with a question to you all on psychology working on animals as well as humans, and asking what you thought made it work.
Well, the Q got modded for the original question because it didn’t give enough information as to what the details were about, which didn’t surprise me, so I changed the question to “Who would have thought reverse psychology would work on a dog?”......And it went MIA. As far as I can tell, it was a perfectly valid, thought provoking question especially after I changed it. And further, it even got a GQ before it disappeared. I seriously protest that.
