Is Your Training Too Operant?

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

Classical versus operant conditioning.
Recognizing and understanding the emotional states of your dog.
How your emotions and confidence affect the emotional state of your dog.
Understanding the classical effects of your operant conditioning.
The magic in the emotions.

Key Takeaways:

Most dog training starts with operant work then folds in classical conditioning.
When training with a dog, you are not working in laboratory conditions. There are other associations happening and that context needs to be taken into account.
Hunting for a toy and hunter for a man are two different things. You will draw more sustained, higher level drive when trailing with a bite at the end rather than hunting a ball or a pipe.
Be aware of what lessons you are teaching when utilizing training tools.They may be learning a classical lesson instead of the intended operant lesson.

"Classical conditioning will always trump operant conditioning, in certain circumstances, if those two things come into conflict." — Jerry Bradshaw
