2023/06/12

"Punished by Rewards" by Alfie Kohn delves into the concept of intrinsic motivation, suggesting that rewards can actually be counter-productive, undermining our inherent drive to learn and explore. While primarily focused on humans, this compelling theory has implications for dog training. Traditionally, reward-based training has been a staple in teaching our canine companions. But should we be wary of over-relying on treats and praise? This question leads us back to the concept of intrinsic

Bull breeds, children and best case versus Armageddon are once again the topics of discussion that came from surveys within our on-line discussion group.Bull breeds are well-known for their strength, stamina, and loyalty, but their reputation often suffers due to negative portrayals in the media.

The Canine Paradigm ·

2023/05/20

Dog training is a journey, underscored by significant transitions through distinct learning phases, each showcasing your dog's growth and understanding. Initially, in the Introduction and teaching phase, your dog doesn't understand the expected behaviour. However, as they begin to recognise the task or command, they naturally transition into the Learning and Association phase. This shift becomes noticeable as your dog starts associating your command with the corresponding action, albeit

Episode 257: Am I being anthropomorphic or not

The Canine Paradigm ·

2023/04/22

Have you ever talked to your pets as if they were human beings? If you have, you might have been accused of being anthropomorphic. Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics, emotions, and behaviours to non-human entities such as animals, objects, or even natural phenomena. Recently, Pat asked Glenn if he was being anthropomorphic when he was observing behaviours from his dogs, Remco and Valerie. While dogs do feel emotions like joy and fear, they might not necessarily

When it comes to dogs participating in bite sports, developing their grip strength and technique is a crucial aspect of their training. Proper grip development through good techniques in tug and rag work can help improve a dog's performance, prevent injuries, and increase their confidence and drive. In bite sports, such as PSA, Schutzhund, IPO, and French Ring, dogs are trained to bite and hold onto various objects, including sleeves, bite suits, and hidden sleeves. To prepare them for these

2023/04/02

In this episode, we explore the topic of seeing your dog in a new light after they display unexpected aggressive or concerning behaviour. As dog owners, we often assume that we know our pets inside out and understand their behaviour patterns. However, sometimes our dogs can surprise us and exhibit behaviour that we don't expect or fully understand. When a dog displays aggressive behaviour, it can be a jarring experience for their owners. Suddenly, the dog that we have loved and cared for can seem

2023/03/29

Dog owners often unwittingly trigger certain behaviours in their pets, without realising the implications of their actions. While the owners may not understand what they did, the dog's perception of the situation is entirely different. Due to the data it has collected, the dog's brain sees this as a cue to run a particular program. This phenomenon is not uncommon, and it's a result of a dog's ability to learn and adapt to its environment. Dogs are highly intelligent animals, and they have an

The Canine Paradigm ·

2023/03/12

As much as we all love our canine companions, sometimes behavioural issues arise that can make life with them difficult and even dangerous. In some cases, these issues can be so severe that they pose a threat to not only the safety of others but to the dog itself. In such situations, the difficult decision to consider euthanasia may arise. It's important to note that behavioural euthanasia should always be a last resort, and only considered after all other options have been exhausted. This

2023/02/26

Dogs may develop the behaviour of barking to biting when they feel frustrated and their drives are not properly addressed. This behaviour can have various underlying causes, but it is often associated with fear or frustration. For instance, if a dog is barking at a person or another animal and feels unheard or misunderstood, it may resort to biting to communicate its message. Socialising the dog and ensuring it has positive interactions with people and animals can help. Additionally, training the

As a dog trainer, you have a crucial role in helping dogs and their owners resolve behaviour issues. To be successful, it is vital to have answers to life's questions, particularly when it comes to markers, cues, and primary reinforcer's.
