Controlled Aggression

Attention, Direction & Draw


Listen Later

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
  • Thinking about the end game from the beginning of your training. 
  • Creating neutrality through all kinds of distractions. 
  • Look at me, look at me while, look at that, and look at that while commands for your dog. 
  • Balancing draw to fight against drift. 

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Attention is the dog’s anchor. Give them a point to focus on that allows them to be neutral to everything else around.  You have to control a dog’s eyes to control their behavior. 
  • You want to lay the foundation for sending on command, not sending on agitation and discriminating between the two early on in your training. 
  • Create neutrality through time on the field. 
  • No matter how advanced your dog is, keep working on your fundamentals. That is where the strength lies when you are in actual scenarios. 

 

"One of the most important fundamental exercises of attention is teaching the dog to look at me, then look at that, and then look back to me, and then look back to that and change it up for the dog where I point the dog at different things that might be of concern to him." —  Jerry Bradshaw
