In this video, we go through a practical demonstration on building drive when reinforcing a recall - using a ball to create chase and competition.
In this video, we take a deep dive into Proximities, or Proximities Dynamics - which is a way of exploring and assessing how our dogs experience space. You can learn a huge amount about your dogs behaviour by looking at how they interact in your space, and the space of other dogs and people.
In this 3rd video on our reinforcement series, we discuss an evolutionary perspective on reinforcement - exploring predatory success rates, and why predatory animals are hardwired to keep trying to succeed at things that are only sometimes successful.
What is a high value reward - from a dogs perspective? In this video, we discuss the trend of high value rewards - where they’ve come from, and whether or not they are received in the way that we think by our dogs.
In this deep dive, we explore the first stage of our training on resolving separation related issues - Independent Relaxation.
In Part 2 of our Separation Anxiety Deep dive, we explore the importance and benefits of an independent sleep routine when it comes to preparing to leaving your dog on their own.
In this deep dive, we explore the process of introducing Charlie - a very sensitive temperament of dog, to new puppy Théo. Handling these situations in the right way sets both dogs up to succeed, by slowing down the process so that both the older dog and the younger puppy have time to get to know each other and build trust.
In this video, we do a deep dive into the process of introducing the figure 8 lead to Layla the Border Collie.
Should you play tug with your dog, or not? In this Deep Dive, we explore the pros and cons of this popular game, and discuss healthy habits.
