Primacy of Learning, Hunt Drive, Markers, and Advice for Young Trainers

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

Having a full, firm, and hard grip (which may not be calm).
Developing a hunt drive in your dog.
Working dogs on markers and having different types of markers.
How to be an active learner and advice for young trainers.
How primacy of learning applies to training.

Key Takeaways:

You want a bite suit to be as form fitting as possible to allow the dog to feel the person underneath while still giving protection to the decoy.
Your dog should have a genetic predisposition to hunting. However, rehearsal and learning awakens the genetics inside of young dogs when you practice.
You have control of how you want to train on markers. You can have multiple types for different things how you choose as long as it is clear to the dog what you want them to do.
Watch everything. When you are learning to train, watch others work, watch masters handle dogs. Be attentive at all times.
In training, ask questions, be kind, and pay attention.

"My advice for young trainers is watch everything going on around you. Be present, be attentive to training that's happening in front of you, so you can try and understand it." — Jerry Bradshaw
