Session 100: Pros and Cons of Food Treats and Corrections

Session 100: Pros and Cons of Food Treats and Corrections

On this, our 100th episode, I am going to give a consolidated answer to a question that comes up a lot. When and why I use food as a trainer, when and why I don't use food, and when and why I do or don't use corrections or dog collars. It's all connected, and it's time we dive in on this particular subject.

So much of the confusion about this group of topics is that, like everything, for every trainer there is a different opinion. And it's easy to take one specific episode (of the previous 99) and think that I either am or am not a "food treat" trainer based on the topic at hand. Different situations dictate those circumstances and I will explain why.

It's important to understand that one of the drawbacks (or at least an observation you should consider) is that the treats become "the point" for why they obey a command.

For example; find an opportunity to evaluate the process when you do and another when you don't. Was their willingness to obey tempered when they saw that you did not actually have a treat for them? There are several ways to evaluate this - we'll talk about a lot of ways to determine the best way for you to train your dog in a way that works best for your situation.

The Progression of Difficulty: There are three things that make anything harder (or easier) for your dog; What you’re doing while your dog does a task: This is usually measured by how connected (or disconnected) to you. For example, on leash versus off leash. What’s going on around your dog while they do a task: These are sometimes called “distractions” Distraction theory (further break down): Distance Movement Surprise And number of distractions How long you expect your dog to do a task PRACTICAL APPLICATION AND HOMEWORK Get your dog’s freedom/responsibility quotient back into balance Structure your dog’s everyday life more Here’s a link to an article on our blog that will give you some things to change around your house to structure your dog’s life more during this training phase.

Session 2: Starting out – Are you having some “policy” disagreements with your dog?

Session 2: Starting out – Are you having some “policy” disagreements with your dog?

In this podcast episode I discuss the start of training. In my “in -person” lessons we all start out at the same place. Whether someone just got a rescue dog a few weeks ago or whether they paid tens of thousands of dollars for a “fully trained” dog, we all start out assessing three things. First, relationship, then basic “core” skills (including the one core skill that makes any dog a “good dog”) and lastly we address “policies”. One of the challenges in starting with a new client is that everyone calls me with what I label a “policy disagreement” with their dog. That is, their dog has one set of default rules and their owner would like them to have another. Before throwing down the new policy manual, (to be fair to your dog) we have to see if they have the basic “core” skills to do the kinds of policies that you want them to do and before we address basic skills, we have to clarify the relationship. At the end of this podcast, I leave you with some “observational” homework so you can start assessing those three areas right away (relationship, basic skills, and policies).
