Hi readers! Ive been really into American history lately and I am looking for a book that covers the queer community. Any recommendations?

Im trying to get some reassurance that im doing the right thing for my dog. I am using a shock collar on my dog to correct her behavioral issues. My dog (2F pitbull) is reactive to other dogs and lunges on a leash. I have read that walks are very important for dogs to build a relationship with an owner and for physical and mental exercise. Due to these issues I have been using a shock to correct when my dog pulls or lunges toward other dogs (the other dogs are across the street - I try to maintain as much distance as possible). I have tried the shock collar on myself and it feels like a muscle spasm and isnt painful just an odd feeling.

I also think it is important to note that I have tried other positive means of correcting like rewarding with treats but the behavior did not stop or get better at all.

Curious to get some helpful feedback, thanks!
