In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Understanding learning theory, types of conditioning, and systems of training. Creating a habit so strong that it will hold up to distractions. Consistency takes knowledge, effort, and discipline. Having a picture in your mind of what is expected, and holding to that standard. Reward is what replicates the habit. Key Takeaways: If you are struggling with certification level performance, you need to consider reaching out to get some additional help. If you don’t understand theory about how a dog learns, you’re going to run into difficulty in trying to teach a dog anything. Never abandon your training progression just to see what the dog will do. When you have inconsistent training, you have inconsistent behaviors. People who lack goal directed behavior become depressed. Dogs also have goal directed behavior. "In the grand scheme of things, when you give a command, it happens." — Jerry Bradshaw Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email:
