What is the difference between "negative" and "positive" training?

The difference between “negative” and “positive” training, is that in the old days, dog training came out of the military and so it's very punitive. If the dog didn't sit they would choke them in a choke chain. We learned since then that dogs are able to learn as early as six, seven, or eight weeks old. So, we use positive reinforcement to train dogs, meaning we use their food to train them; we make them work for their food. Dogs are much happier to do that than be choked by a choke chain.
