The most effective way that is by ordering dogs repeatedly...
My question is whether number 1 can be rephrased as number 2 or number 3.
1. The most effective way that is by ordering dogs repeatedly seems to be no longer regarded as a way for training them effectively by experts.

(This seems to be acceptable if we think of "by ordering dogs repeatedly" as modifying "the most effective way.)
3. The most effective way, by ordering dogs repeatedly, seems to be no longer regarded as a way for training them effectively by experts.
(This seems to be barely acceptable if we think of "by ordering dogs repeatedly" as as an appositive modifier of "the most effective way")
