There's also the fear of people will go and and I think this is a different stage of training than what we just talked about right there, but some people have this real aversion to presenting at all or the fear of presenting to odor and I and I my thing is presenting isn't the problem.
The problem comes from just what you just said.
If you're constantly only presenting where odor's at, that's the problem with presentations.
Um, you should be able to present anything you need to.
The dog is collaborative with you and will maybe go investigate that.
Um, and it shouldn't be predictive.
It shouldn't be that this means that.
Um, but what happens is sometimes uh we'll get handlers who then is training and they know the answer and the dog is struggling and they're standing right.
Buy where the odor's at, but they'll they are afraid to present to the general area.
And I'm like, okay, if we were teaching like early on, I would say, do exactly, let's go someplace, let's reset this, let's make this a little bit more clear, but presentation won't mean anything.
But sometimes I do want you to present because you might present rural odors at at some point.
So we have to go through this too to see what this looks like and what happens.
happens, but the main objective is don't do that.
That's not something you do all the time.
You just it's a randomized thing just like anything else.
And presentations can have some value and maybe if there just happens to be dumb luck, you presented without even knowing the first thing they did was where Odor is at.
Other times it's a bunch of other stuff, you're just saying, Hey, check this out.
Put your nose here and sniff.
I wanna I wanna take this I wan I wanna end the episode with this topic here because I'm super curious to see this is this is now a training topic, um, but I would love to hear your feedback so others can learn from you on this.
Inaccessible when odor is high or deep and the dog can't get to it.
