Do dogs really test us? It can sure seem that way when a dog's behavior is not what we expect and they show inconsistency and fluctuations in what they do. My stance on this topic has changed over the years, and I’m sharing why, along with perspectives on why dogs might seem to be testing us, and the first thing I usually do if my dog surprises me with an unexpected response.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• My answer to the question: “Do our dogs test us?”
• About my journey in dog training, including my experiences with different breeds and dog sports.
• Why I believe dogs are not intentionally testing us, but rather responding to incomplete education or changing environments.
• The importance of understanding the ABCs of dog training - antecedents, behavior, consequences - and how they influence dog behavior.
• How to approach behavior when it's in flux vs. when it's fluent.
• The role of curiosity in dog training and why I always strive to be a lifelong learner.
• What I do when a trained behavior surprises me and goes back into flux.
• Why reacting with correction may not be the fastest solution.
• How adopting a mindset of compassion and curiosity can transform your relationship with your dog.Resources:
