Shaped by Dog with Susan Garrett

Visit us at shapedbydog.com   If you are trying to train a dog who is fussy about food, or if you know someone who is in that situation, you may think, "this dog training is never going to work." And you know, you're probably right! Training will be a challenge unless you have something of great value for the dog.

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    How many thresholds does your dog cross a day? It could be a physical or emotional threshold. Training thresholds are important to understand, and thresholds can explain why some dogs seem anxious and refuse to budge, and others get way overexcited.

You’ll also get a peek at what I discovered about my puppy Prophet’s excitement with a see-saw and how I'm counterconditioning the stimulus.   In this episode you’ll hear:   • About understanding thresholds as emotional states that dogs experience. • The different types of thresholds: positive, neutral, and unpleasant. • Examples of thresholds such as entering new environments, or going to specific places like a training class or vet's office. • The importance of observing and managing a dog's emotional state when crossing thresholds. • Strategies for managing extreme reactions at thresholds, such as overexcitement or fear. • How to implement relaxation protocols and counter conditioning to create a more desirable behavior. • Why you need patience and consistency in training to modify a dog's response to thresholds over time. • My puppy Prophet’s See-Saw (Teeter) obsession and counterconditioning the stimulus. • What to do for calm, focused behavior when crossing thresholds. • The importance of being present and proactive in managing thresholds and behaviors.   Resources:   1.

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    What if I told you that the secret to unlocking your dog's success lies within the walls of your own home? I've been using a training den for many years, and so have my students. I’m covering how to use a training den to fast track your dog’s success and confidence, what I keep in my training den, and why it creates a bond with dogs and helps them love training. The good feelings you create for your dog in your training den transfer to the training, which transfers to you, and you can generalize that to other places. And don’t worry if you don’t have much space; everyone can create an environment for learning success.   In this episode you’ll hear:   • About the importance of identifying ideal training environments for dogs. • The goal of training sessions: build and maintain confidence while we build and maintain behavior.  • Why we need to tailor the training environment to the dog's age and stage. • Where and how to create a dedicated training area or "training den" in your home. • The benefits of the training den in controlling distractions and building positive associations. • Why Positive Conditioned Emotional Responses (CERs) are vital in dog training. • What to include in the training den, and what I have in mine. • Tips on choosing the right flooring for the training area. • How training dens set dogs and people up for success and the value transfers.   Training Den Tools:   1. 4MyMerles Tug Toys - https://4mymerles.com/collections/dogs-that-say-yes  2. * PETGEEK Treat Dispenser - https://geni.us/petgeek-dispenser   3. * Microfiber Feather Duster Target Stick - https://geni.us/extendable-duster  4. * Textured Silicone Coasters (for paw target use) - https://geni.us/silicone-coasters          5.

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    Have you ever been triggered by social media dramas about dog training methods? It's likely something we all experience. There was a recent incident at Crufts that flowed into the social channels this week that had a lot of thoughts flooding into my brain, including the question of how can we, as a community of dog loving reinforcement-based trainers, show up as our best selves when we get triggered by things out of our control? I'd love to open a dialogue on this topic and want to convey the compassion and empathy I have for everybody when sharing my experiences and observations in this episode. I understand that, for many, it might be a difficult conversation.    In this episode you’ll hear:   • About dog training, controversy and social media dramas. • That we can all be triggered by differing dog training methods. • Thoughts on the core values of reinforcement-based training. • Why I’m not the same person or dog trainer I was 30 years ago. • My experience with being a guest on a podcast with a balanced dog trainer. • Insights into the evolution of dog training perspectives over time. • Why I called Jean Donaldson and had an enlightening conversation. • That we need grace and compassion for ourselves, and the big question.   Resources:   1.
