7 Counterintuitive Things You Can Do That Will Give Your Dog Training A Major Facelift

from Off Leash And Unfiltered: The Truth In Dog Training · host Kati Peppe

Send us Fan MailSo many of the things that we do with other humans are counter productive with our dogs. While many of the basic principles are shared, we tend to use language in a way that our dogs don't really understand and we also humanize them, applying what we THINK or what we FEEL as though it's the same for our dogs. But it's not!I am giving very specific examples of things that can really help propel your dog training into the next level and get traction where you never could before. Don't stay stuck doing the same things over and over if it's not working. * Stop soothing fear and trying to comfort the dog. Instead exude confidence.* Stop talking so much! You are muddying the waters. Your dog can't extract the meaningful stuff because the noise never shuts off.* Take your dog into stressful situations! Don't avoid them! This is where progress can be made.* Try convincing  yourself that more positive interactions is NOT the thing that will help your dog. After all, it hasn't yet.*Eliminate free passes. Giving your dog the "benefit of the doubt" sounds nice, but really it serves to keep them confused and you frustrated.* Work your dog above threshold and around triggers. The threshold never moves if you don't. Triggers just remain triggers.* Put ALL of your focus on results, not process. The results should actually determine your process as you go!Support the showLove the show? Sign up to access our new exciting Xtra content!
