Important conversations when we graduate from one dog to two: Does one dog teach the other bad habits and can we ask them to teach good habits?

Walking together: your body language is the d…

Our hands are very often used for communication and for the pup most importantly CONTACT. The way we use our hands, where they touch the puppy, how they touch the puppy will be building associations for life. Hands that can be trusted and hands that will deliver sensational rewards.

A period of exceptional growth where the pup's world seems to shrink as they grow larger. Feet seem gigantic and unmanageable, teeth are falling out, appetites and growing and sleep is the deepest kind. Not a time we should be expecting cognitive gymnastics but still need to feed the learning appetite. Having survived many of these transition perio…

It's time to flip another concept on its head--the whole idea that the dog MUST pay attention when you say their name before you start training. Nagging?

Markers are an integral part of the communication process when we are interacting with our learners. Whether you choose to use a clicker or not, the whole process behind "marker training" needs a close examination. Hanging your training psyche on the use of a clicker may not be the best use of your time. Especially if you are just starting out. On …

What is the point of learning? "When that brand new brain gets into motion it is going to have to find out how to secure the rewards needed for life, and once that is achieved set about finding the very best rewards, and lots of them. On a daily, minute by minute basis." In this episode of the "Learning About Dogs," Sue McGuire and Kay Laurence of …

In the early days of using positive reinforcement and clicker training, the delivery of that reinforcer, (reward), was not part of the consideration. The format of the research experiments favoured a mechanical magazine to deliberately remove any variables that human delivery would include. When people become the mechanism of delivery we have to co…

ALWAYS REMEMBER: REWARDS ARE DEFINED BY THE BEHAVIOURAL REACTIONS THEY INDUCE. It is the individual that decides if it is rewarding or not. What are rewards? We are in Season 3 of the "Learning about Dogs" podcast. Kay Laurence of "Learning About Dogs," and Sue McGuire, host/producer, are calling this our "A Season of Rewards," because that is exac…

This third season of the podcast is all about living a "reward centered life" with our dogs. What do we mean by that? Take a read of Kay's blog S…

"Having discovered this world of rewards and reinforcement I protectively wrap my dogs’ learning with an envelope of reward probabilities. This is where I begin," says Kay Laurence of Learning About Dogs. And this is where we begin this season's journey. We are dog trainers, who must make the conscious and scientifically appropriate decision, to le…

Living with multiple dogs can be fun and challenging. It comes with a demand to develop a great deal of observation skills to make sure your group is working for the dogs as individuals, and their life with you. How many is too many dogs? What breeds and what sex combinations? It depends. Kay Laurence of Learning About Dogs and Sue McGuire a TAKL g…

Menomics can be handy when it comes to finding a quick and simple way to remember a spelling or phrase. But using these devices does require us to decide if they actually help learning or hinder it. In dog training, we have a few of these devices that require much more consideration before accepting them as valid. The three Ds. Duration-distance-di…

When a dog "generalizes" a behavior, it means they can do the behavior under a wide variety of conditions. But a dog being able to do that has very much to do with how we originally taught the behavior. On this episode of Learning About Dogs, Kay Laurence of Learning About Dogs, and Sue McGuire, a canine behavior program manager at a humane society…

One must be careful about using terminology we hear at seminars or read in books and apply to our training. Kay Laurence of Learning About Dogs and co-host Sue McGuire love tackling these habits of trainers applying a label to something they think they are seeing, when what might be happening, is not really happening. What? We chat about the concep…

On this special bonus episode of the "Learning About Dogs" podcast, Kay Laurence and Sue McGuire attempt to provide a bit of a tutorial for students who want to know how to separate the good, from the not so…

Errors are feedback. Set the dog up for success. Develop the skill to know what to change in a teaching set up, and when. Teach the prerequisite skills--even the rats and pigeons in the boxes were provided that information. Emotions underly all learning. There is much to chat about on the concept of "errorless learning" in dog training. On this epi…

Dogs are aware of our every move and have decided which ones are relevant to them and which are of little consequences. This is so apparent when we use our hands, be it, living our daily lives with them, or participating in a training sessions. When puppies come to us, this is when we should be teaching what hands mean. Hands are always a sign of w…
