I saw on the today show last week that you can train your husbands using this same philosophy.

The way to train all animals is to set them up in situations such that
the choice that you want is the one that is the most attractive to the
animal.  What you do to make the choice that you want look the most
attractive to the animal you are training depends entirely upon the
choice that you want to have selected and understanding the individual
animal well enough to know what it finds attractive.

Understanding the nature of the species you are dealing with can help
you to understand the individuals within that species, but it is
important not to get too caught up in stereotyping individuals just
because they happen to be of a particular species as it is not uncommon
for individuals lie outside the norm.

However, you cannot do any of this unless/until you first recognize that
the animal has choices.
