Navigating the Traps of Affirmation and Improper Reward Placement in Dog Training | DiscDog Dojo
🥏🐶 In this episode of DiscDog Dojo, Ron Watson, with co-host Epic, 🧁CupCake🧁, and da 👑King👑, takes a deep dive into the concept of affirmation in dog training and the importance of correct reward placement.
Ron demonstrates how the simple act of rewarding can have unintended consequences when not done properly. He explains how the act of rewarding a behavior in the wrong position can actually serve as a form of positive punishment, reducing the likelihood of the desired behavior occurring.
Ron provides insightful examples of how improper affirmation can result in what he refers to as an 'answer dog' - a dog that makes decisions prematurely, leading to miscommunication and misunderstanding in the handler-dog relationship. By altering the timing and placement of the reward, he illustrates how a dog's behavior can be shaped more effectively, leading to better understanding and performance.
This episode offers valuable insight into the nuances of dog training, emphasizing the importance of correct reward placement and timing. Whether you're a dog trainer, a dog sport enthusiast, or a dog lover, this episode provides practical knowledge and skills that will help you better communicate with and train your furry friends.
