🎧 Podcast Episode Description (for Spotify, Apple, YouTube, and RSS)
In this episode, we debunk the myths and misinformation surrounding the use of food in dog training — including the age-old claim that “dogs trained with treats only work when food is visible.”
Will Bangura, M.S., CAB-ICB, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, FFCP, internationally certified canine behaviorist and host of Dog Training Today, guides you through the science and structure of reward-based training, revealing how to use food correctly—not as a bribe, but as a powerful reinforcer.
We explore:
- Why food is the most effective and ethical training tool
- How to avoid dependency and fade treats strategically
- The science behind marker timing, operant and classical conditioning
- Mistakes pet parents make with treat delivery
- How to build lasting behaviors that don’t rely on food presence
