Scientific Approach to Off-Leash Control

Controlled Aggression

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

• Understanding learning theory, types of conditioning, and systems of training.

• Creating a habit so strong that it will hold up to distractions.

• Consistency takes knowledge, effort, and discipline.

• Having a picture in your mind of what is expected, and holding to that standard.

• Reward is what replicates the habit.

Key Takeaways:

• If you are struggling with certification level performance, you need to consider reaching out to get some additional help.

• If you don’t understand theory about how a dog learns, you’re going to run into difficulty in trying to teach a dog anything.

• Never abandon your training progression just to see what the dog will do.

• When you have inconsistent training, you have inconsistent behaviors.

• People who lack goal directed behavior become depressed. Dogs also have goal directed behavior.

"In the grand scheme of things, when you give a command, it happens." — Jerry Bradshaw
