In this episode, we delve into the fascinating technique of shaping in animal behaviour and training. Shaping, also known as successive approximation, is a method where small, incremental steps are reinforced to guide an animal toward a desired behaviour. We break down how shaping works, from rewarding initial attempts to refining a behaviour until it meets the training goal.
Throughout the episode, we explore real-world examples of shaping across various species, from dogs learning to sit on command to horses mastering complex tasks. We also discuss the importance of timing, consistency, and patience, along with the common challenges trainers may face when using this technique.
Whether you’re an experienced trainer or just starting out, this episode is packed with practical tips and insights to help you incorporate shaping into your training toolkit.

In this episode, we unravel the concept of extinction in behaviour modification, exploring how the strategic removal of reinforcement can effectively reduce and eliminate unwanted behaviors in animals. We start by defining extinction in a training context and discuss its application across various scenarios, from curbing a dog’s excessive barking to managing more complex behavioural issues in horses.
Along the way, we dive into the challenges of using extinction, including the notorious “extinction burst” and the importance of consistency and patience. We also compare extinction with other behavior modification techniques, offering a well-rounded perspective on when and how to use this powerful method.
Whether you’re a pet owner, an animal trainer, or simply fascinated by behaviour science, this episode offers practical insights and strategies to help you tackle even the most stubborn behaviours.

In this episode, we delve into the art of desensitization in horse training, exploring how systematic desensitization can (in theory) help horses remain calm and confident in the face of challenging stimuli. Starting with the basics, we discuss how desensitization 'works', from identifying triggers to gradually increasing the intensity of exposure. Along the way, we highlight the role of counter-conditioning and share practical tips for integrating these techniques into your training routine.
But fair warning—what began as a concise 25-minute discussion... quickly turned into a lively, off-the-rails debate/exploration.
Join us as we navigate through our own insights, laughs, and passionate tangents on the topic.

In this episode, we explore the roots of dominance theory, beginning with Schjelderup-Ebbe’s 1922 research on domestic hens, and discuss how it has shaped our understanding of animal behaviour.
The episode also dives into the intricate dominance behaviors within and between species, from wolves and primates to birds, showcasing the complexity of their social structures. Additionally, we scrutinise the scientific evidence that challenges traditional dominance-based training methods for dogs and horses, advocating for the more humane and effective approach of positive reinforcement/learning theory.
Whether you're an animal enthusiast, a pet owner, or a behavioural science aficionado, this episode is packed with valuable information to transform your understanding of animal social structures and training techniques.

This episode of "Dangerous at Both Ends, Tricky in the Middle," we delve into the multifaceted world of equine behaviour, exploring the lines between normal, abnormal, and unwanted behaviour from a human & horse perspective. This comprehensive discussion is designed to unravel the complexities of how we perceive and interact with our equine companions.
Join us as we tackle the intriguing topic of what constitutes 'normal' behaviour in horses. What are the typical patterns and habits of these animals, and how do they vary across different environments and situations? We'll explore the natural behaviours exhibited by horses and how they adapt to the lives we share with them.
Then, we shift gears to discuss abnormal behaviours. These can range from subtle changes in temperament to more pronounced issues like stereotypies or aggression. We'll examine the causes behind these behaviours, such as stress, environment, and health issues, and how they can be identified and managed.
But what about behaviours that are not necessarily abnormal yet are considered unwanted from a human perspective? This part of the episode focuses on the challenges faced by horse owners and handlers in managing behaviours that may be natural for horses but problematic in human care settings. We'll discuss training approaches, management strategies, and the importance of understanding equine psychology to create a harmonious relationship between horses and humans.
Whether you're a seasoned equestrian or simply love horses, this episode will enhance your understanding and appreciation of the complex nature of equine behaviour.
