Description
In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: Best practices and variations on utilizing a back tie. Appropriate, sturdy back ties on different surfaces and tables. How to decoy while using a back tie for many types of training. Balancing bringing the dog to the decoy, and the decoy to the dog. Key Takeaways: The longer the back tie, the bigger the circle is. This creates additional challenges with the dog possibly getting tangled. The back tie is adjustable based on your needs. Look at what training you are doing and utilize the back tie to help assist that training. The dog needs to activate, and the decoy needs to react to that activation. This will create a proactive dog. The kinds of things that we're doing when we're working dogs on the back tie is working through all of our foundation fundamentals. "Having the dog on a back tie makes it so that if you get too close and get bit, it's your own damn fault as the decoy. I'm not relying on that handler to keep me safe. Especially with some new handlers or some handlers that don't have a lot of experience or maybe have a particularly powerful dog, having that dog back tied is just going to give us an extra margin of safety." — Jerry Bradshaw Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training: www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube: tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon: patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/ Sponsors: ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/ Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/ Train Hard, train smart, be safe.
