Your fight-of-flight instinct has kicked in, your anxiety is through the roof, and all you naturally want is to get out of there. Except you don\u2019t have the key for the door, and you have no way of knowing when you\u2019ll be let out. All you can do is stay there, while that thing that terrifies you inches closer, and put up with it.<\/p>\n

Doesn\u2019t sound very pleasant, does it? If anything, this sounds like a total nightmare. <\/em><\/p>\n

Believe it or not, this thought experiment forms the basic idea of what\u2019s known as \u201cflooding\u201d. Flooding is a \u201ctechnique\u201d used by some to essentially try and cure a frightened dog. Notice how I put the word technique <\/em>into quotations. That\u2019s very much intentional.<\/p>\n

As you\u2019re about to see, respectable dog groomers<\/a> (and even just people in general) consider flooding to be a legitimate training \u201ctechnique\u201d about as much as they\u2019d consider kicking a disobedient dog to be one, too. That is to say, it\u2019s not a proper technique at all.<\/p>\n

In reality, flooding can be a very dangerous practice. It not only puts the dog itself at risk, it also poses a threat to other dogs nearby, other people, and even you!<\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re a certified dog groomer, heed our warning. Never implement flooding as a practice within your pet grooming business<\/a>. It could wind up destroying your entire reputation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][image_with_animation image_url=”11320″ alignment=”” animation=”None” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\n
