Table Training in Protection

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Types of tables for training and their various purposes.  Progressions of training while integrating the traditional tables or bark boxes.  Skills that train well when properly utilizing the different types of training tables.  Individualizing each dog's training as you go through the progress.    Key Takeaways: The goal is to get the dog to understand that his behavior activates the decoy. They need to understand that their aggression starts the process.  When a dog wins in their encounters, they like to start playing in that training. They enjoy it.  There is no real standardization for the tables - make the version that works for you.  Just like all training, you have to vary the conditions of training as you repeat the same behaviors.    "These apparatus are meant, really, for us to individualize training, as per the dog. They don't all have to go in that same progression, and they don't all have to work in the same way. Pick and choose which piece of equipment you might use for a particular dog based on what that particular dog actually needs." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com 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   Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.com  Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com     Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
