Holding a Standard of Behavior

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Knowing what an ideal behavior looks like when you're working every stage of progression.  Accountability and follow through.  Short, medium, and long term goals in your organized training plan.  Having proper technique and understanding reward structure for your dog.    Key Takeaways: You must hold a consistent standard of behavior to show the dog that there is no wiggle room is what you expect from them.  Allowing departures from what is expected tells the dog that there is no standard of behavior.  You have to understand how to craft a training session and understand what your goal of each training session is and how it fits into the bigger picture of your training plan.  We want to be able to articulate our assessment of how things went and that allows us to understand what we need to do moving into the next session.   "You have to know what an ideal state and ideal behavior looks like, whether it's a segment of behavior, or a part of a bigger behavior chain, when you're working every stage of that dog's progression. Whether you're working something in the short, medium, or long term you have to really understand what standard you want to hold that dog to, and, every single time you bring that dog out, you have to hold him to that standard of behavior." —  Jerry Bradshaw    Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: [email protected] Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/      Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron's Superior Canine Email: [email protected]  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.   Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
