Catch Your Dog Being GOOD!
What does it mean?
When your dog makes a good choice or offers a desirable behavior; capture it, by rewarding it, in the moment:
-
shaping new, desirable behaviors is much easier (and more fun) than modifying established behaviors; and
-
your dog makes an effort to please you to earn praise-reward-because it feels good; and
-
it's an enjoyable, invaluable training tool available to you any time / any place; and
-
you'll see more (an increased frequency) of the behaviors that you acknowledge and reward; and
-
your dog feels acknowledged; so
-
it's a win-win!
