Description
Visit us at shapedbydog.com Chances are you are familiar with the concept of “time outs”. A time out is something you will hear of being used for kids, puppies, and dogs. The bottom line about a time out is that it is punishment. Should a time out be part of life with our dog? Are we using a time out due to our inadequacies as a trainer for our dog? In the episode you'll hear: • Lessons I learned about using time outs. • The science of time outs. • About the three different forms of time outs. • The reality of what I’m saying to my dog if I give a time out. • How getting better at reinforcement will reduce punishment. • Why you need to see a change of behaviour if you use a time out. • The reasons you need to ensure your dog knows how to be right. • When a time out might actually be reinforcing for a dog. • The importance of being non-emotional. • Why you need to know the patterns of your use of time outs. • How to use a time out effectively. • Ways you can minimise using time outs.
