Understanding Consent in Dog Training
Consent in dog training refers to the dog's ability to give permission for activities, influencing two main categories: general training and health-related procedures. Expressed consent occurs when a dog actively demonstrates approval, such as lying down calmly during nail trimming, while implied consent is shown through excitement for activities, like dancing at the door when the owner grabs keys. The importance of recognizing consent derives from its roots in fields like marine mammal training, where a lack of cooperation can result in significant challenges. Emphasizing consent fosters a more cooperative and positive relationship between dogs and their owners, ensuring both parties are engaged and eager to participate.
