Working Up Your Behavior Chain to Find Where it Went Wrong


Listen Later

What to listen for:

"I found that the things I taught in higher arousal have held up better in higher arousal environments. The things done very slowly in lower arousal haven’t held up as well."

Ever wondered why some detection dogs excel under pressure while others not so much? Join in exploring the dynamic world of canine detection training, guided by the unique experiences of our hosts Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing. They share their journeys through the challenges of maintaining behavioral fluency in high-arousal situations, breaking down the complexities of foundational training and behavior chains. They emphasize the unpredictable nature of well-trained dogs when faced with new stimuli and the critical balance between fluency and arousal.

The next segment offers a deep dive into high-arousal training methods, where practical advice meets real-world scenarios. Discover the transformative power of teaching commands during high-energy moments and how these techniques can solidify behaviors in unexpected environments. They also discuss the importance of introducing dogs to varied conditions early on, ensuring their training is resilient and adaptable. This chapter challenges conventional wisdom, highlighting our evolving understanding of canine behavior.

The Dames of Detection also tackle the intricacies of tracking training, managing arousal, and setting boundaries. Learn about maintaining a steady training pace and fostering intrinsic motivation in dogs. From the balance required in reinforcement to the importance of clear boundaries, this discussion provides a comprehensive look at creating effective training routines.
