How To

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:   Send the dog where you want them to go in upper-level control.    Training young (and not so young) dogs away from you, not just near you.    Using attention as a reset.    Utilizing unconventional equipment when training your dog.      Key Takeaways:   Consider training different commands for different attention and directionals to make it clear to your dog what you want from them exactly.    You need to be able to give your dog clear feedback when they are focusing on the wrong thing. That is where the discipline comes into this process.    Eventually, you have to generalize commands to various obstacles and decoys.    Directionals are key in upper-level PSA and in scenarios, as they can allow you to, among other things, stop hunting behavior or send your dog in a specific direction, even if it's not the one they initially want.      "Don't be in a hurry with puppies to do a lot of this directional stuff until you have all the tools to where you can actually make the dog understand what you want them to look at so we can make sure our targeting system is clean." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/  The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Directionals and Casting

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:   Drills to teach your dog to give up something to get something.    Utilizing multiple types of reinforcement to increase positive behaviors.    Adjusting e-collar settings to change the type of pressure on the dog.    Differences in different models of e-collars and how your dog may react to them.    Pre-empting the mistakes that you can.      Key Takeaways:   A lot of common outing mistakes have to do with e-collars and the misuse of certain functions for outing behaviors.    Consider going lower on stimulation and longer on the taps of the e-collar rather than a high stimulation with an extremely short duration. This will change the type of pressure on the dog.    Avoid habituating your dog to the higher levels of stimulation. These dogs are bred to fight through adversity, you don’t want to stress innoculate the dog to the e-collar pressure.    Try a few different types of e-collars on and see which one they respond better to based on their temperament and the sharpness or bluntness of the e-collar. Experiment and see what works best with the minimum force rule.      "Outs must be rewarded. No behavior will be maintained without some form of reinforcement." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/  The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Ten Common Outing Mistakes

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and John Kirk discuss:   The benefits of being both a handler and a trainer.    Societal and departmental expectations of a canine unit in a large department.    Creating good training files for handlers and canines.    Utilizing all of your tools appropriately.   Procedures, protocols, and manuals.      Key Takeaways:   As a trainer, if your hand is off the leash for too long, it does make a difference and both the dog and your trainees will know it.    It is equally as important for handlers and department heads to understand what a dog is capable of and what they are not capable of doing.    As a trainer, you need to be able to speak with both the canine and the handler.    Set up for real-world training, not just for certification training. Create challenging training that will prepare your dog for the street.    Policing is changing, standards are becoming more stringent, and all of that needs to be communicated and supervised closely to ensure everyone stays safe.      "As a trainer, I need to focus on the dog, I need to focus on any improvement that the dog needs. When it comes to training a handler, our goal is to make sure that this handler has the confidence that he needs." —  John Kirk   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/  The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Upcoming Events in 2024!

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:   Obedience and capping in drive.    Leveraging reward systems and using queues in drive to prepare for capping.    Utilizing different tools and training progressions to properly train drive.    Drive training with different canines.      Key Takeaways:   Suppressing the dog’s behavior is not obedience or capping because it isn’t channeling their energy into something. We don’t want to suppress - this creates behaviors we do not want.    Dogs that are dirty in their outings are struggling in their drive capping.    Don’t be scared of the expression - it should not make you nervous. But you want them to also be able to cap and be quiet. Neither should be sacrificed for the other.    Make sure to train your dogs in all situations and around decoys in full kit.      "If all we ever do when we're doing obedience on a dog is just suppress the hell out of them, then we're not doing obedience in drive, nor are we doing drive capping." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Episode References:    The Companion Dog Podcast - https://losthighwaykennels.com/podcast/    The Working Dog Depot Podcast - https://www.doublehcanine.com/the-working-dog-depot    Controlled Aggression -  Defensive Dogs in Protection   Detection Blueprint    Restraining Canine Drives      Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/      Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/  The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
