What is the cause of the misfortune? Genetics? Environment? Something else altogether? Frankly, it doesn’t matter. The blame game leads to suppression of behavior via punishment and that leads to a loss of honesty. This IG live was all about the cyclical relationship between the blame game and the problems that result. We can be be better!

February 11, 2023 Train Behaviour, Condition Emotions
This is the number one thing I want dog trainers to understand. You cannot control a dog's “state of mind” by managing it through training their behavior. Emotions don’t work that way.

February 08, 2023 Risk-Benefit Analysis
We know quite a lot about keeping our dogs safe, but we don’t often consider how that creates trade-offs….Quality and quantity of life have a tendency to be at odds, when push comes to shove. We each make decisions based on our risk assessment. The world could be a much kinder place if we allowed others the same freedom without judgment.

January 07, 2023 Reward "Ugly" Behavior?
Our society is based on punishment, and we have internalized that. We accept fear and sadness as acceptable emotions, and we want to comfort those who feel them. But we do not accept anger and frustration, and their emergence makes us want to punish those emotions when we see them. I talk about why you might struggle to apply the principles of classical conditioning to behaviors that society does not find acceptable.
