Operant Conditioning and the quadrants can be confusing, but if you take the emotion out of it and see it as a mathematical equation, it suddenly becomes much more logical. Remember to subscribe and follow on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube!

“Should she be crated most of the time” “Should I do Bitework with my own dog?” “Will obedience training inhibit his Bitework?” In this episode I talked to a first time Malinois owner and answer some of his questions and address some common sayings about raising working dogs and how they originated. Shoutout and mentions to many great dog trainers like Bart Bellon, Jerry Bradshaw, Dave Kroyer and a few more!

“You know better”, “Why did you do that?” Are just some of the things we say when our dogs don’t do as they’re instructed. In this episode I relate an experience I had recently to a common phenomenon in dog behavior.

This is a continuation of the previous episode on resource guarding. Please listen to that one first so this episode makes more sense to you. As usual, make sure you consult with a more experienced dog trainer if you need assistance with potentially dangerous behaviors.

In this short episode I break down Resource Guarding and why it’s a perfectly normal behavior, as well as how to address it. (Never attempt to address potentially dangerous behaviors without the supervision of a professional)

In this episode I talk about learning as the most basic function to improve a current situation; and how toddlers, and every other animal go through the same process.

In this episode I talk about why I’m so fascinated with dog training and how it all started. I also lay out my plan for this podcast.
