Ep. 1 - Critical Philosophy and Why it's Important

About this episode

Today we are discussing why Right Thinking is the foundation of everything else that we do, both in our lives and in our training and handling of Protection Dogs. Acting Right is a byproduct of Thinking Right and understanding the cycle of development in our thoughts will help each of us do the things we need to do.



Next we address the idea many people have of "Wrong" training methods. No training method is wrong if it is accomplishing its intended purpose. But we need to understand what the ultimate purpose of a training method is so that we can choose the method that best fits our goals.



Finally, I talk about Why Almost all training advice is wrong...except mine, of course [smirk]. But so much of what I hear people discuss when it comes to dog training is based on the assumption that other people have the same goals and objectives as the ones giving the advice. We should ask the question, what are you trying to accomplish first. When we understand what the objective is, we can begin discussing the best ways to get there. But without that understanding, most training advice falls short of having any helpful meaning.
