Podcast #187: Training Faster Behaviors Without Frustration, Part 2

Drinking From the Toilet: Real dogs, Real training

In this episode, we explore strategies to achieve faster and more precise behaviors in dog training. I discuss how clarity, timing, and reinforcement techniques can improve your dog's response times, reduce hesitation, and build confidence. Tune in for practical tips to keep your training sessions clean and effective.

Key Points:

- Clear communication prevents slow or hesitant behaviors in dogs. - Reinforcement clarity is crucial, even when using a high rate of rewards. - Capturing and reinforcing the initial signs of a behavior leads to quicker responses. - Consistent timing with marker cues enhances behavior speed. - Minimizing duration requirements can accelerate behavior performance.
