The Minutiae of Dog Training

If you like the minutiae of dog training, you might like this live.

Here I talk about the challenge I have with my dog in the Mondio ring search exercise… He prefers to bite than to bark! I talk about a "good training" solution which involves breaking it down into small pieces…small splits are good dog training.

I talk about the fact that it didn't work. I talk about brainstorming to come up with an answer.

And what all of this makes me think about? One challenge of training dog sports with positive reinforcement is lack of tradition around solutions to problems. Of course this is not a problem in Dog sports that are traditionally positive reinforcement based, but it absolutely is in sports with little to no tradition of +r problem-solving, because these sport have rather few +r folks playing the game.
