In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Using the right equipment for the right stage and type of training for your canine.
What equipment fixation looks like and how you can overcome it.
Equipment orientation drills and the peeling the onion drill.
Training your dog to alert on human odors and with man primacy.
Key Takeaways:
Equipment fixation leads to street failures. Focus on the human form instead of biting equipment.
Proper, methodical transitions from hard sleeves to hidden sleeves help to build confidence and create focus on the human decoy. You never want to go from a satisfying bite to a less satisfying bite.
You want to be using the lowest profile hidden sleeves that you can, such as the ALM hidden sleeves.
Train dogs to focus on human odor, not equipment odors.
Your dog does not need to get the bite every single time. Especially when doing muzzle work, taking it off to get the bite every time might just introduce a different type of equipment to fixate on.
"Dogs are great economists because they're going to want to trade for something of equal or greater value. If it's equal value, it usually means that you're giving them something and adding something in by your behavior so you're creating a reward event." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
The evolution of training targeting, different target areas, and primary vs secondary targets.
Training bites with young puppies even before they start teething and when to start grip development.
When to teach drive, grip, targeting, and outs for the most success in biting behavior.
Making the right equipment choices for the different stages of bite training.
Progressions in targeting, why you should train rear and front targets, and how they affect launch.
Key Takeaways:
Tricep targeting is worth developing and is worth spending time on.
Take the time to learn how to work your dog on a leather strap and on a wedge during early training. Donât expect perfection from the beginning, it is a progression.
If youâre doing your training properly, your dog should not have a fixation on the equipment that you canât out them.
Training police dogs in biting legs can help remove hesitation and get a quicker bite on the suspects.
"Developing good targeting without developing multiple targets is a huge mistake." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Moving through the phases of behavior acquisition for maximum training potential and skill retention and generalization.
Developing Mark, Move, and Reward as your protocol.
Using markers, such as try-again markers, to teach your dog variations of learned behaviors.
Making place a valuable and a safe place to be for your canine.
Using the place command to train perimeter neutrality.
Key Takeaways:
Dogs say ânoâ all the time - we have to have a way to make them want to go to a place and compel them to go to a place when weâre developing this command.
Depending on your dog, the place command can be used in different ways and with different rewarding protocols to improve the utility of the command.
Place allows us to work the dog away from us.
Donât be married to only training one way. As you train more dogs, you will learn that different dogs train better in different ways. You, as a handler, will also evolve in your training.
This is the boring side of great training. Sometimes the greatest training starts with training the place command and neutrality.
Make use of your downtime and dead time. Work on neutrality and train that using place commands instead of just doom scrolling.
"This is a really simple behavior that's really hard to mess up, and it allows the handlers to get tons and tons of practice at using marker systems, at using both direct and indirect rewarding protocols. If there are mistakes, there's much going to be much less fallout than if we were in the context of detection or article indication or anything like that." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
More content you can get on the Controlled Aggression Patreon or in the Street Readiness Seminars to to help you problem solve with your dog.
Luring and trading in training to build skills.
Staying in control and not allowing your dog to self-reward.
Leveraging every interaction with your dog.
Key Takeaways:
If youâre having troubles with countering - consider training outs. It may be that your dog doesnât want to open their mouth once they get a bite.
Donât get too stuck in your quadrants - sometimes you have to use different aspects of negative and positive reward and punishment combined to get the behavior youâre looking for.
Start training outs with mechanical outs. Leashes and lines are a great place to start - you donât need to jump right in with ecollars.
You need to be able to have handler presence for both punishments and rewards. Make sure you are the one controlling your dogs eyes.
"Use the piece of equipment thatâs going to get you the best resultsâŠWhen thinking about which tool to use, the property way to look at it is to experiment. Try one and see how it goes, then try the other and see if it is any better." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Send the dog where you want them to go in upper-level control.
Training young (and not so young) dogs away from you, not just near you.
Using attention as a reset.
Utilizing unconventional equipment when training your dog.
Key Takeaways:
Consider training different commands for different attention and directionals to make it clear to your dog what you want from them exactly.
You need to be able to give your dog clear feedback when they are focusing on the wrong thing. That is where the discipline comes into this process.
Eventually, you have to generalize commands to various obstacles and decoys.
Directionals are key in upper-level PSA and in scenarios, as they can allow you to, among other things, stop hunting behavior or send your dog in a specific direction, even if it's not the one they initially want.
"Don't be in a hurry with puppies to do a lot of this directional stuff until you have all the tools to where you can actually make the dog understand what you want them to look at so we can make sure our targeting system is clean." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Drills to teach your dog to give up something to get something.
Utilizing multiple types of reinforcement to increase positive behaviors.
Adjusting e-collar settings to change the type of pressure on the dog.
Differences in different models of e-collars and how your dog may react to them.
Pre-empting the mistakes that you can.
Key Takeaways:
A lot of common outing mistakes have to do with e-collars and the misuse of certain functions for outing behaviors.
Consider going lower on stimulation and longer on the taps of the e-collar rather than a high stimulation with an extremely short duration. This will change the type of pressure on the dog.
Avoid habituating your dog to the higher levels of stimulation. These dogs are bred to fight through adversity, you donât want to stress innoculate the dog to the e-collar pressure.
Try a few different types of e-collars on and see which one they respond better to based on their temperament and the sharpness or bluntness of the e-collar. Experiment and see what works best with the minimum force rule.
"Outs must be rewarded. No behavior will be maintained without some form of reinforcement." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and John Kirk discuss:
The benefits of being both a handler and a trainer.
Societal and departmental expectations of a canine unit in a large department.
Creating good training files for handlers and canines.
Utilizing all of your tools appropriately.
Procedures, protocols, and manuals.
Key Takeaways:
As a trainer, if your hand is off the leash for too long, it does make a difference and both the dog and your trainees will know it.
It is equally as important for handlers and department heads to understand what a dog is capable of and what they are not capable of doing.
As a trainer, you need to be able to speak with both the canine and the handler.
Set up for real-world training, not just for certification training. Create challenging training that will prepare your dog for the street.
Policing is changing, standards are becoming more stringent, and all of that needs to be communicated and supervised closely to ensure everyone stays safe.
"As a trainer, I need to focus on the dog, I need to focus on any improvement that the dog needs. When it comes to training a handler, our goal is to make sure that this handler has the confidence that he needs." â John Kirk

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Obedience and capping in drive.
Leveraging reward systems and using queues in drive to prepare for capping.
Utilizing different tools and training progressions to properly train drive.
Drive training with different canines.
Key Takeaways:
Suppressing the dogâs behavior is not obedience or capping because it isnât channeling their energy into something. We donât want to suppress - this creates behaviors we do not want.
Dogs that are dirty in their outings are struggling in their drive capping.
Donât be scared of the expression - it should not make you nervous. But you want them to also be able to cap and be quiet. Neither should be sacrificed for the other.
Make sure to train your dogs in all situations and around decoys in full kit.
"If all we ever do when we're doing obedience on a dog is just suppress the hell out of them, then we're not doing obedience in drive, nor are we doing drive capping." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Developing training rituals that translate to travel and trial.
Basic positions and notifying judges in basic position variations.
What judges are looking for and the difference between minor errors and larger point losses.
Why consistency, speed, directness, and attention matter during your trail.
Key Takeaways:
One of the first things the judge looks for is if your dog is coming onto the field in the right state of mind. As the handler or spotter, you want to be aware of how you are presenting yourself as well.
Any time words come out of your mouth, they matter. You do not want to be giving double commands when youâre getting started.
Donât make handler errors when it isnât necessary.
Footwork drives what your upper body does. You want your dog to be able to read your body language.
"When I see things that are outside the rules, I have to assume theyâre being done on purpose." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Understanding the flow channel to make your dog (and you as a trainer) better.
How handlers and trainers decide the skills to prevent to the dogs at different skill levels.
Exceeding the requirements of certification and organizational policy in your training.
Training tools to make for a stronger dog in operational settings.
Setting up building searches for different scenarios, not just bite situations.
Key Takeaways:
As the skill levels grow, it is important to have a challenge that fits with that skill to keep your dog engaged and involved with the training.
Obedience for the sake of obedience is not practice.
Obedience is the framework that provides boundaries to a dogâs behavior.
Hands-on removal in policy doesnât mean you donât want to practice other releases. If you do a chokehold removal every time, it will create frustration.
You need to train a call off with your dog. It is more than just something that is used in certification, it is a safety skill.
"As your dogâs skill levels increase, you can challenge them more - you can challenge them more with scenarios, you can challenge them more with training." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Things you need to know before starting certification.
Having a training methodology that allows for compartmentalization, repetition, and isolation of skills if needed.
Understanding rewards throughout and at the end of the track.
Creating the behavior you want to create and working around distractions.
Key Takeaways:
Run your training for certifications like you would run a real scenario.
Pay attention to all directions and information in the scenario briefing.
Be careful not to overvalue the end of the track by always putting a person at the end.
Ritual is going to give you a really good reset when youâre lost. Ritual will also help a dog distinguish when you are on a search rather than just a normal day.
"Context is everything. As handlers and as trainers, we need to start thinking in terms of context. It is possible to have an extremely successful tracking program where the handlers lay some proportion of their own tracks. This allows the handlers to isolate things and skill sets that they need to isolate." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Understanding learning theory, types of conditioning, and systems of training.
Creating a habit so strong that it will hold up to distractions.
Consistency takes knowledge, effort, and discipline.
Having a picture in your mind of what is expected, and holding to that standard.
Reward is what replicates the habit.
Key Takeaways:
If you are struggling with certification level performance, you need to consider reaching out to get some additional help.
If you donât understand theory about how a dog learns, youâre going to run into difficulty in trying to teach a dog anything.
Never abandon your training progression just to see what the dog will do.
When you have inconsistent training, you have inconsistent behaviors.
People who lack goal directed behavior become depressed. Dogs also have goal directed behavior.
"In the grand scheme of things, when you give a command, it happens." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Having patience with your puppies.
The three types of defensive dogs.
How decoys can affect defense or prey.
Identifying early signs of avoidance in your defensive dog.
Tips for working the dog in defense properly.
Key Takeaways:
Once the dogâs foundation work is where you want it, then you can start adding in skills. Donât rush the foundation work.
All drives have intensity. The intensity will be completely dependent on your experience. Working with and seeing more dogs will give you a better understanding of what is high, medium, and low.
The avoidance threshold does not come out of nowhere. You want to watch carefully for where the defense is breaking down into avoidance.
The younger the dog, the touchier the training will be. The thinner the margin between defense and avoidance, the more difficult it is to train the dog.
"Youâd be surprised by what you can get out of defensive dogs when you really understand how to work them." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Mistakes made that lead to suppression, avoidance behavior, anxiety, or hesitancy in your canine.
Building thoughtful release behavior into the pressure.
Training your dog how to sit when in drive.
Rewarding the capping with something expressive, even if not a bite.
Tips for training drive capping properly.
Key Takeaways:
Excitement, expressiveness, and forward movement arenât wrong. But you want the dog to learn how to hold that excitement in until released, not turn it off.
Suppression happens when you do not allow the release at the end of the wait.
You want to help the dog learn to find the advantage both in the quiet behavior and in the alert or expressive behavior.
You want to balance the capping and the expression. The dog needs to understand his advantage at every stage of the drive, including when capped.
When youâre learning capping skills, having a really good decoy who understands capping, who can read the dog, and understands every aspect of the situation is invaluable.
"It is so important to have your dog in the right frame of mind when they go into a building search or an area search when their job is going to be to make an apprehension. And we want to make sure we preserve that state of mind in the process of getting the correctness and the quality of the behaviors that we want." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
The positive impact PSA and American Schutzhund have had on pet training.
Creativity and innovation in training your dog.
The objective standards of canine sports to create better dogs of all ages.
Getting involved in the culture of canine sport.
How sport can change the way you think about dogs.
Key Takeaways:
Being part of a canine sport club will allow you to have conversations with other dog owners who are also training their dogs and can make training your pet feel less isolating.
It is the application of ideas that matters. You want to be a trainer that can do, not just talk about doing.
Behind the rules and standards of evaluation, canine sport shows the breeding of the dogs who participate and compete.
The tighter the training, both in pet training and in sport, the better it will be over the long term. The looser the training, the looser it will get over time.
"Part of the culture is you get a sense of place where you have belonging, youâve got some safety, thereâs some humility that has to be shown, you get to share success - nobody does this alone." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Bringing out the traits in your dog that are (or are not) genetically in them already.
The difference between countering, pushing/pulling, and pulsing bite grips.
Working with the dog and not creating an unstable grip through overwork.
Actively teaching your dog when and how to counter, and how and when to fight out of a pressure trap using the different grips.
Key Takeaways:
Countering happens when dogs do not get the ideal strike and an ideal grip in the initial bite. You want the dog to be biting all the way back to their molars whenever possible (which can be difficult when the dog is coming in full speed on a decoy).
Biting with the back teeth allows for more leverage power in the jaw which can help with pain compliance even through layers of clothing on a pushing grip in a police dog situation.
The decoy and trainer both need to understand what you trying to get out of each training session with dogs at all stages of development. Training with a puppy is very different from training with an older, veteran dog.
A lot of decoys and trainers are neglecting to teach the dog to counter off of the transition.
"Countering is a very important technique in training a protection dog, but we may go too far in focusing only on that." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
Teaching your dog lessons through action, feedback, and prevention.
Understanding the queues that you are creating in your dog.
Planning your training sessions in advance and understanding the variables.
Preparing with the correct equipment and rewards for the training session you are heading into.
The importance of evaluating your training sessions, and getting a second pair of eyes on the training and evaluation when possible.
Key Takeaways:
Your training session begins as soon as the dog comes out of the kennel, both what is and is not happening matter from that moment on.
You should have reasons for doing everything that you are doing in training. You do not want to create associations with equipment or locations
Know the sub-skills that you want to work and the variables inherent in those when you are planning what skills and subskills you are planning on training in each session. Do the research if needed to understand how to support that training and make it better.
You must know what you are doing before you even put your hands on the dog. There is a lot happening and if you don't have a plan things will get chaotic and not go how you want them to go.
"I plan out before I work my dog exactly what I'm going to work on before the session starts so I know what I want to do on the field. Setting up for success is about figuring out what you're going to do before you go and try to do it instead of just going out and doing what other people are doing and mimicking them." â Jerry Bradshaw

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:
The secrets to success in both the training field and trial field.
Why consistency matters.
Benefits of having an engagement ritual and how it can help provide a reset for your canine.
Variable reward systems and proper reward frequencies.
Advocating for your dog and understanding what is supposed to happen on trial day.
Key Takeaways:
You want to have rituals for both you and your dog. If you do it correctly, the trial day is just another training day.
Donât underestimate the importance of building your dogâs bathroom habits into your rituals. You donât want them to be relieving themselves on the practice or trail fields.
If your training is going well, you should be getting away from micromanaging their behavior. They need to be able to function without a lot of feedback during trial.
You need to know your dog. Each dog will have a different strategy for parking, getting out of the car, coming on and off the field, etc.
Practice what you will do during the critique. Practice your transitions between exercises. There is more to trial than just the trained activity.
"It is what we develop in training that becomes a habit for trialing." â Jerry Bradshaw
