Kennel club members who frequently discipline their dogs report a higher incidence of misbehavior than do members who rarely or never discipline their dogs. We can conclude from this that discipline does not improve dogs' behavior; on the contrary, it encourages misbehavior. The argument is flawed in that it fails to consider the possibility that
A: kennel club members are more likely to use discipline than are other dog owners
B: dogs' misbehavior is the cause of, rather than the result of, frequent discipline
C: dogs learn from past experience how their owners are likely to react to misbehavior
D: kennel club members tend to be more skilled at raising dogs than are other dog owners
Choose A, B, C or D as your solution.
