@NateSchoemer

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I start training puppies as early as 8 weeks of age. I progress at the speed of the dog, since some will learn faster or slower than other dogs. Day 1: Engagement training Day 2 - __________: luring and teaching leash pressure for all the positions. I continue that until the dog is doing all the behaviors the way that I like on the physical cue alone. Then I start naming all the commands. Next, I would start teaching the stay. Finally, I start getting the dog generalized to the training, by training in multiple locations. www.nateschoemer.com/post/how-to-properly-socializing-your-dog

You are also using positive punishment, so all 4 quadrants are being used there. The behaviour of jumping up is being positively punished in that video. I think the absolute best option that I know of today is to first teach a reliable alternative behaviour (sit, down, station, target) and then use DRI for jumping up. What that would look like is: you cue the behaviour (e.g. sit) and positively reinforce the cued behaviour. If the dog chooses to jump instead you use negative punishment for jumping. This option leans more heavily on good antecedent arrangement and positive reinforcement and decreases dramatically the need to use positive punishment and negative reinforcement. Thanks for making a video trying to help dogs. 👍

Hey Nate, so wasn't diligent in training my puppy, until recently. He is now about 6 months old now, and he jumps and nips at all of us. He's a great Pyrenees, so he's big. My farm coat isShredded. I train him during meal time, and he'll sit, lay down, and come on leash. But as soon as I get ready to come in the house, or when I come out of the house, he's jumping all over me, and biting. We have to keep him on leash, so he can't jump and bite so much. It's aggravating, and I don't have more than an hour a day to spend with him. He is supposed to be a livestock guardian dog, but has killed 2 chickens so far.

Asking them to "sit" when they jump might also be a quick way to teach them as they won't need to figure it out through trial and error and you directly tell them what's expected of them. If they keep jumping up when asked to sit then leash pressure is a fair game

Awesome content as always Nate! A question for clarification though... isn't your assistant in this video literally inviting the dog to jump up by patting her legs and looking excitedly at him?

Should I assume that what you are trying to do here is teach the dog that no matter what somebody else does, that they still are not to jump up. Is that correct?

Hi! I have a quick question for you. As you have trained a lot of dogs, have you ever trained an Afghan Hound? My family and I are going to be getting an Afghan puppy over the summer and I was wondering if I would be able to train it considering that it’s a very smart, independent thinker and very aloof? Also, would the puppy start off with these personality traits, or is it something that evolves as they mature? I love your videos by the way! They were very helpful when I was training my other dog.

@NateSchoemer

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! The Afghan Hound is not a breed that I have personally worked with since they're not as common as many other dog breeds. However, the step-by-step process that I teach and the science of dog training apply to every dog. In regard to the science part, keep in mind that when you are training your dog the science is always the same; what varies between each dog are things like motivation, perseverance, intelligence, temperament, disposition, etc. Being able to adjust for each dog’s specific needs is considered the art of dog training. Because of this, not all techniques work on all dogs; and as a result, you have to be able to adjust accordingly. For example; a dog with a very high level of perseverance will continue to work through a difficult task to get a reward-while other dogs may give up early.

Second question from me here Nate: since it seems that what dogs like so much about jumping up is that they want to be able to smell our mouths etc be near our face, is putting our face near them when they have all four on the floor another idea for a reward? (Though now watch I do this and my back goes out right?! 🙄)

Hi Nate, Great video, I’m really enjoying your channel. Lately, my 11 wk GSD has been struggling with leash pressure. She seems completely content with ignoring it for up to 30+ seconds. It’s beginning to feel like I have to apply more pressure, but I don’t want it to become positive punishment. Any tips? Thanks

@NateSchoemer

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, follow this process: We can make this process easier by using something the dog already knows to get them to quickly learn this concept. It will go like this: • First, apply leash pressure. • Next, after the pressure has been applied, you will use luring to guide your dog into the desired position. For example: if we want to use leash pressure to get the dog into the down position, we would apply pressure first-then once the dog feels the pressure, we would lure the dog into the down with a piece of food. This will help teach the dog the leash pressure- which occurs because whatever comes first is what you are teaching your dog. So, in this situation-it’s the leash pressure. • Turn the leash pressure off. • Mark and reward.v

My sister has trained this out of our dog and she is very very wellbehaved now. The only problem is that a lady near us, absolutely loves our dog and lóves it when she jumps up. So we ask her not to, but when we're in the park, we often turn to see the lady holding the treat up and only giving it to our dog once she's jumped on/against her hips. We will then ask her, again, not to do this. and she'll mumble; Oh but she is a sweetypie and I love her and oh oh here' and give her another treat. She might be a bit insane too, the lady. So now, we reluctantly are teaching the dog that that óne insane lady can get jumped on and that the rest absolutely does not want it. So far it's working, but I hope we can train the lady too, that'll make it easier.

What if you have a husky puppy that jumps and then also bites when being petted. And if we let people pet our puppies/dogs, doesn’t that also cause them to become over excited and then aggressive if they see random people and don’t get the attention they expect?

@NateSchoemer

3 жыл бұрын

Lol! Thanks! Let me explain as this is often confused. :) The foundation and understanding of dog psychology starts with the four quadrants of operant conditioning. Since this is something that most people have a hard time understanding, let’s go over it. The four are: positive reinforcement, positive punishment, negative reinforcement, and negative punishment. These can be broken down into two factors: • Reinforcement means to encourage a behavior to be repeated, whereas punishment means to discourage a behavior from being repeated. • Positive means to add something to the equation to influence behavior, while negative means to remove something to influence behavior. It can be tricky to see “positive” as discouraging a behavior, as in positive punishment, and “negative” as encouraging a behavior, as in negative reinforcement-but it’s easy to understand in the context of operant conditioning where “positive” and “negative” are not used to mean the same things we normally use them for, such as “good” and “bad”. Negative Punishment is when something is removed from the equation that the dog likes in order to decrease an undesired or bad behavior. Negative punishments techniques are commonly practiced in dog training. Examples of Negative Punishment: Once again, not all of these punishments are necessarily good ways to discourage behavior, but they are examples of the concept of negative punishment. • While you're petting your dog, he decides to jump up at you. As a result, you stop petting your dog and you ignore him. • Your dog barks at you to get your attention, so you put your dog in her crate taking away her freedom (not recommended). • Your dog wants a treat, so you tell him to sit, he decides not to sit, so he doesn't receive the reward. • Your dog starts to resource guard the couch, so you stop letting her on the couch. Negative reinforcement is when pressure is turned on to get the desired behavior, and once the behavior is completed, the pressure is turned off. Two things must take place in order for negative reinforcement to work: • Once the pressure is turned on, it cannot be turned off until the dog complies. • The moment the dog complies, the pressure must immediately be turned off. Here an example of negative reinforcement in dog training: Getting your dog to sit with leash pressure. Your dog is standing and refusing to sit. You start to pull up on the leash until your dog sits. Once your dog sits, the pressure from the leash is removed. Your dog knows that every time he doesn't want to feel the pressure from the leash, he can sit to remove that pressure. Why is this negative reinforcement? The pressure from the leash was present before your dog decided to sit. His behavior of sitting is removing the pressure from the leash. Therefore, negative reinforcement is occurring. • Before: Pressure is being placed on the dog's neck from the leash. • Behavior: The dog goes into the sit position • After: The pressure from the leash is released. • Future behavior: The dog will sit when the slightest pressure is applied by lifting up on the leash. I hope this helps and thanks for watching and supporting the channel! :)

If popping the leash doesn't work, you can try a couple things. a) Try popping the leash harder b) Put a second leash and collar on him. When he bites one, correct him with the other. c) Slightly pinching the scruff on the lower back near the base of the tail will get most dogs to let go of what they are biting. If you have an older dog, just be careful that the dog doesn't redirect and try to bite you. Most dogs won't, but it's still something to keep in mind. I hope this helps!

3 жыл бұрын

When they bite on the leash, I pop it out of the dogs mouth, giving the dog a correction for the unwanted behavior. Corrections in dog training is when we are using positive punishment to stop an undesired behavior. First, we must keep in mind that everything our dogs do is based on motivation. The motivation to access something pleasant, or the motivation to prevent something unpleasant. If your dog is practicing a behavior that is fun (self-reinforcing behavior), then you have two options to stop this. One; make sure to prevent the dog from being able to practice the undesired behavior. The second option is to use a correction to stop the behavior. A correction can be anything the dog doesn't like. So in the end, the motivation not to receive the correction must override the motivation to do the undesired behavior. If you use a correction and the undesired behavior continues, then the correction is not high enough. Here's an analogy to help understand this concept. It's important to remember that every dog has their bank account (their correction level). Some dogs are very wealthy, and some are penniless, just like people. Let's say that you are speeding down the highway and a police officer pulls you over and writes you a 25 cent-speeding ticket. The second the officer leaves, you will start speeding again because the ticket wasn't high enough to get you to change your behavior. But let's say he pulls you over and writes you a ten-million-dollar speeding ticket, now it's so high that you will avoid driving altogether, and you will be very stressed out. On the other hand, let's say he pulls you over and writes you a $125 speeding ticket. That would be enough to get you to slow down, without causing you to avoid the behavior of driving altogether. This is what we must do with our dogs; we need to correct them at a level that is adequate to their bank account. If the dog doesn't stop the bad behavior, then you may have to increase the correction. Just be sure to correct the dog in the act. In addition, proper corrections should not create a fearful dog. Usually fear when correcting a dog is due to the owner being angry, yelling at the dog, or correcting too hard. When we use a correction, it's simple cause and effect. A correction should never be personal and you should never yell at your dog. Once the correction is done, then we praise and reward our dog when they're doing what we like. If your dog knows why he/she is being corrected and knows how to prevent the correction from happening, then you shouldn't create any fear. Leash pop: This is when you make a snapping motion with the dog’s leash to engage the training-collar to give the dog a correction (a positive-punishment). If you're using a flat collar and that's not working, then you may need to use a prong collar to stop the behavior. I hope this helps!

Negative reinforcement is when pressure is turned on to get the desired behavior, and once the behavior is completed, the pressure is turned off. Two things must take place in order for negative reinforcement to work: • Once the pressure is turned on, it cannot be turned off until the dog complies. • The moment the dog complies, the pressure must immediately be turned off. Here are a few examples of negative reinforcement in dog training: Getting your dog to sit. Your dog is standing and refusing to sit. You start to push on your dog's rear until your dog sits, at which point the pressure from your hand is removed. Your dog now knows that every time he doesn't want your hand to push on his rear, he can sit to remove that pressure. Why is this negative reinforcement? The pressure from your hand was present before your dog decided to sit. His behavior of sitting is removing the pressure from your hand. Therefore, negative reinforcement is occurring. • Before: Pressure is being placed on the dog's rear end. • Behavior: The dog goes into the sit position • After: The pressure from your hand is released. • Future behavior: The dog will sit when the slightest pressure is placed on his rear. Getting your dog into the down with your hand. Your dog is standing and refusing to lay down. You start to push on your dog's shoulder blades until your dog decides to lay down. Once your dog lays down the pressure from your hand is removed. Now, your dog knows that every time he doesn't want your hand to push on his shoulder blades, he can down to remove that pressure. Why is this negative reinforcement? The pressure from your hand was present before your dog decided to lay down. His behavior of going into the down position is removing the pressure from your hand. Therefore, negative reinforcement is occurring. • Before: Pressure is being applied on the dog's shoulder blades. • Behavior: The dog goes into the down position • After: The pressure from your hand is released. • Future behavior: The dog will lay down when the slightest pressure is placed on his shoulder blades. Getting your dog to sit with leash pressure. Your dog is standing and refusing to sit. You start to pull up on the leash until your dog sits. Once your dog sits, the pressure from the leash is removed. Your dog knows that every time he doesn't want to feel the pressure from the leash, he can sit to remove that pressure. Why is this negative reinforcement? The pressure from the leash was present before your dog decided to sit. His behavior of sitting is removing the pressure from the leash. Therefore, negative reinforcement is occurring. • Before: Pressure is being placed on the dog's neck from the leash. • Behavior: The dog goes into the sit position • After: The pressure from the leash is released. • Future behavior: The dog will sit when the slightest pressure is applied by lifting up on the leash Getting your dog into the down with leash pressure. Your dog is standing and refusing to lay down. You start to pull down on the leash until your dog decides to lay down. Once your dog lays down the pressure from the leash is removed. Your dog knows that every time he doesn't want to feel the pressure from the leash, he can lay down to remove that pressure. Why is this negative reinforcement? The pressure from the leash was present before your dog decided to lay down. His behavior of laying down is removing the pressure from the leash. Therefore, negative reinforcement is occurring. • Before: Pressure is applied downward on the dog's neck from the leash. • Behavior: The dog goes into the down position. • After: The pressure from the leash is released. • Future behavior: The dog will lay down when the slightest pressure is applied via pulling down on the leash.

@Nate Schoemer Thanks. I guess my confusion comes from once appy pressure I'm adding, which is positive. If the dog doesn't like what I added, .then it's punishment . Once I remove the pressure, I'm taking away what the dog doesn't like, which is negative reinforcement. I'm sure I'm wrong. Just when I thought I had it. 😆 Cheers.

My new dog scratches me with his paws trying to get my attention and it hurts, how do I stop that?

If you want it to stop, you may need to add corrections to the pups training. Corrections in dog training is when we are using positive punishment to stop an undesired behavior. First, we must keep in mind that everything our dogs do is based on motivation. The motivation to access something pleasant, or the motivation to prevent something unpleasant. If your dog is practicing a behavior that is fun (self-reinforcing behavior), then you have two options to stop this. One; make sure to prevent the dog from being able to practice the undesired behavior. The second option is to use a correction to stop the behavior. A correction can be anything the dog doesn't like. So in the end, the motivation not to receive the correction must override the motivation to do the undesired behavior. If you use a correction and the undesired behavior continues, then the correction is not high enough. Here's an analogy to help understand this concept. It's important to remember that every dog has their bank account (their correction level). Some dogs are very wealthy, and some are penniless, just like people. Let's say that you are speeding down the highway and a police officer pulls you over and writes you a 25 cent-speeding ticket. The second the officer leaves, you will start speeding again because the ticket wasn't high enough to get you to change your behavior. But let's say he pulls you over and writes you a ten-million-dollar speeding ticket, now it's so high that you will avoid driving altogether, and you will be very stressed out. On the other hand, let's say he pulls you over and writes you a $125 speeding ticket. That would be enough to get you to slow down, without causing you to avoid the behavior of driving altogether. This is what we must do with our dogs; we need to correct them at a level that is adequate to their bank account. If the dog doesn't stop the bad behavior, then you may have to increase the correction. Just be sure to correct the dog in the act. In addition, proper corrections should not create a fearful dog. Usually fear when correcting a dog is due to the owner being angry, yelling at the dog, or correcting too hard. When we use a correction, it's simple cause and effect. A correction should never be personal and you should never yell at your dog. Once the correction is done, then we praise and reward our dog when they're doing what we like. If your dog knows why he/she is being corrected and knows how to prevent the correction from happening, then you shouldn't create any fear. Leash pop: This is when you make a snapping motion with the dog’s leash to engage the training-collar to give the dog a correction (a positive-punishment). If you're using a flat collar and that's not working, then you may need to use a prong collar or remote training collar to stop the behavior.

If your dog is still in the initial training stages and learning to stop unwanted behaviors, it's helpful to have a way to control and reinforce rules. Once your dog is house trained and no longer performing unwanted behaviors inside, you won't need the extra tools in the house. I hope this helps. Thanks for supporting my work. Cheers!

I’m not sure this would work as well with a crazy energetic dog like mine. I can have treats or food when she sees anyone and she will completely disregard me.

​@@bblack340 And there's also a radical movement against any kind of pressure at all. But operant conditioning exists in nature everywhere, every second. Toddlers are experiencing it constantly: When they bump into a little thing, they they learn "Oh, I shouldn't walk into that". If they fall on their bum for a second, or another child accidentally bumps into them, they learn to maneuver differently.... But these things are very simple little tiny moments of learning what not to do and are not traumatizing. Same way that if I step outside and it's cold, that was punitive, and I go back in and get my jacket. It wasn't traumatizing though and I don't resent the earth for producing cold weather. And- that uncomfortable feeling probably saved me from getting sick by letting me know I need to put a jacket on. Dogs bang into each other all the time and I will very occasionally experience my dog's leash getting snagged on a sprinkler head and it will jerk my dog a little bit and I'll freak out and be like "Omg sweetie, are you ok?!" And the dog's like "what's your problem let's keep going!" So while I totally believe in relationship-based training and making training totally fun and loving with your dog, little applications of something just slightly kind of annoying for a second or whatever is not mean and cruel and terrible. I have known more "force free" (they're not) trainers who YELL at their dogs later! I never yell at my dogs. Thank you for caring about dogs- I don't like trainers who go pos. punishment first. I mean, why have a dog if you're not wanting to learn all about how to learn and make learning fun for both of you!

Not if you don’t ever want them to jump up, even if someone is encouraging it. Now it would be confusing if someone patted their legs and rewarded the dog when it jumped up and then corrected the behavior another time.

Appling leash pressure, negative reinforcement, or positive punishment ? You are adding pressure. The removal of pressure would be the Negative part ? This is why I hate the "quadrants" crap.

Lol! Yes, leash pressure is negative reinforcement. The foundation and understanding of dog psychology starts with the four quadrants of operant conditioning. Since this is something that most people have a hard time understanding, let’s go over it. The four are: positive reinforcement, positive punishment, negative reinforcement, and negative punishment. These can be broken down into two factors: • Reinforcement means to encourage a behavior to be repeated, whereas punishment means to discourage a behavior from being repeated. • Positive means to add something to the equation to influence behavior, while negative means to remove something to influence behavior. It can be tricky to see “positive” as discouraging a behavior, as in positive punishment, and “negative” as encouraging a behavior, as in negative reinforcement-but it’s easy to understand in the context of operant conditioning where “positive” and “negative” are not used to mean the same things we normally use them for, such as “good” and “bad”. Negative reinforcement is when pressure is turned on to get the desired behavior, and once the behavior is completed, the pressure is turned off. Two things must take place in order for negative reinforcement to work: • Once the pressure is turned on, it cannot be turned off until the dog complies. • The moment the dog complies, the pressure must immediately be turned off.

@@NateSchoemer I get it. Positive is "adding" negative is " subtracting". Which leads back to my original question. Adding leash pressure "positive punishment" turning off leash pressure " negative reinforcement". It's hard to have one without the other. This is what I dislike about "operant conditioning". We can talk about this all day. Both be "right" and never get a dog trained. LOL I trained horses to a very high level in the 70s. Been training dogs since 74. I worked for a master horse trainer when I was just a kid. Now days they call is an apprentice. In those days I mucked stalls and feed mares, and paid attention. At 13 I was told everything I needed to know about training almost anything. " Make the right thing easy ( I'll add pleasant) and the wrong thing hard( I'll add unpleasant). Operant conditioning was invented to try to confuse the public and to make a bunch of scientist seem way smarter than they were. In my old mans opinion... LOL Thanks for taking the time to answer !
