Human Focused Aggression for Police K9

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Understanding the basic biting principles.  Creating neutrality to the equipment and distractions.  The importance of understanding civil work.  Human focused confrontation solved through biting.  Training progressions in civil and bite work.      Key Takeaways: We want to teach the dogs in their basic foundation how they can win even when they get pushed into defense.  Be more obsessed with the dog's mood and how he is dealing with confrontation than you are with the biting behavior.  You have to show the dog how to work in defense in training or you may fail in an actual human encounter because they may not understand the real goal.  When your dog is struggling with passive biting, that says that your foundation is off somewhere.    "That's kind of the goal - we want the dog thinking about the confrontation with the man, not thinking about the equipment, and not thinking about what he's going to be biting." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: [email protected] Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com     Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
