Some pet owners who still use training methods from the past have probably heard that dogs need to be flicked on the nose.
It is believed that this will help correct the pet's unwanted behavior.
However, modern dog handlers strongly advise against doing this.
Why You Shouldn't Punch a Dog on the Nose
Sensitivity
Experts note that animals have anatomical features: dogs, for example, have extremely sensitive noses. Even a light click can cause injuries and extremely painful sensations.
As a result, you will simply cause pain to your pet.
In the worst case, you may even need the help of a veterinarian.
Psychological aspects
It is worth remembering that dogs also have their own behavioral psychology. If you "train" it with pain, the result of such "training" can be unpredictable.
Some animals will lose self-confidence, become passive and prone to depression. Others, on the contrary, will become more aggressive.
