  • Hypocritical, shallow, strawman arguments

    It’s so sad and such a shame that Susan Garrett needs to resort to such shallow even fraudulent arguments, consider considering that she has such wonderful information, to share. Even worse, she criticizes people for allegedly, making arguments broadly representative of those that she disagrees with, and then uses arguments of a similar nature to “prove” her point. Such myopia from such a renowned and successful dog training expert is stunning.
