Episode 239: Incompatible behaviour & positive punishment

Incompatible behaviour & positive punishment is a topic from a quote that we posted on our instagram some months back. The quote was from Dr. Susan Friedman and it says. "The key question is not, how do I stop this problem behaviour? Rather, the question is, what do I want the animal to do instead, then teach it." It's a good quote with plenty of merit. There are many who have taken it and have inferred that in order to do this justice, it can only be by way of teaching incompatible behaviours so the dog cannot perform the old behaviour. We feel that incompatible behaviour is certainly a consideration, however it's limiting by not addressing punishment. In this episode we discussed the ramifications of just this.
