This was awesome. Does any of you have any subscriptions or know of any trainers with subscriptions that show themselves applying this on different dogs?
Another great discussion! Thanks for doing these, since there isn't a strong contingency in my local area. Gold Nugget "Accidentally reward anticipation instead of commitment to the behavior" I believe this might cause conflict in communication in the retriever world where you need commitment to sitting but you're tossing out a direct reward (bird, bumper, etc..)
Great to hear! And yes! Anticipation can either be a good or bad thing. If it’s bad, build anticipation in the other direction, and if it’s good, reinforce it! Using a solid understanding of how to manipulate motivation in a dog is a powerful training tool 😃 We appreciate your feedback!

Great idea. We’ll put something together and add a video demonstrating the different approaches for you!
