Question

Which is the counterargument?
The clicking method works only with small dogs.
The clicking method does not work in noisy places.
The clicking method hurts dogs' ears.
The clicking method does not work with treats.

Answer 1

Hey there !

The answer would be C. The clicking method hurts dogs’ ears. Remember that a counter argument in a way, contradicts what you say as a claim.

Let’s say your claim is “ The clicking method is a simple and effective method of training based on a positive reinforcement reward system.” You would then add a three - point thesis ( or reasons to support your claim) and throw in your counter claim. It would sound like “ Although the clicking method hurts dogs’ ears...” You then add something to the sentence to bring readers back to your side.

Hope this helps !

Answer 2

Answer:

C-The clicking method hurts dogs’ ears.

Explanation:

This is in the paragraph-Dogs are a lot happier if their owner isn’t yelling “STOP BARKING!”  My dog Yoda barks a lot. So what I do is this: If he stops barking when I ask him to,  I make a little tiny clicking sound with a clicker (like a castanet) and give him a treat and say, “Good doggie.” This encourages him to behave.
