274. Markers & Reward Structure - Part 1
Manage episode 429136834 series 2640768
"I wish the dog could understand what I'm saying!" A very relatable request or wish that any dog trainer has probably uttered at some point or another. The truth is though, with the proper approach and consistency, you can get the dog to at least understand "yes" or "no" which does allows you to communicate more effectively with your dog.
Jared Warren of Southern State K9 joins us in a two part discussion on building and utilizing markers. You cant discuss markers without at least working level of understanding when it comes to reward structures as well.
- What is a "marker"
- The types of markers: reward, duration, terminal, indirect reward, negative
- You're actually using markers whether intending to do so or not
- Dog training isn't just one way ~ "There are 9 million ways to Rome"
- Sometimes the best option is to go backwards and reset
- Charging the marker
- "Free shaping" vs "luring"
- Luring = "mechanical shaping"
- Mark and....release, keep going, reward
- The hope of reward has to outweigh the struggle of behavior
