Enhance Your Dog’s Obedience with Proper Corrections!
This lesson's goal is to help you become proficient in providing fair correction during your dog's training.
E-collar Technologies:
Collar used in video: www.ecollar.com/product/et-300-mini-educator-e-collar-1-2-mile-remote-dog-trainer/
The common scenarios requiring correction include:
1) Your dog chooses not to respond to a command.
2) Your dog breaking a "stay".
3) Your dog violates an established rule, such as a boundary.
4) Your dog is practicing an unwanted behavior, such as digging.
Remember: positive punishment isn't the solution for stopping unwanted behaviors driven by fear or aggression. For these, a combination of counterconditioning and desensitization is the best course of action.
Once you're comfortable with the act of correction itself, the next step is to master the correction sequence for non-compliance with commands. This sequence involves your marker for positive punishment, such as "no", then a physical correction (leash pop), then re-command, and assist. The same sequence should be used when your dog breaks a 'stay' command or a boundary.
Introducing the correction event:
Much like reward and reinforcement events, a correction event has a start and end point. After you've said your marker word that signifies positive punishment, such as 'no', pause for half a second to avoid overshadowing. You're now in the correction event. Regardless of your dog's reaction to the marker word, calmly approach your dog to deliver the correction. Once the dog has received the correction, the event concludes. You then need to provide the dog with the expected course of action - this is when you issue a command and commence a reinforcement event. Once the dog executes the desired behavior, offer verbal praise, but withhold rewards. The goal is not to let the dog associate performing an undesired behavior with receiving correction followed by a reward. In this situation, verbal praise suffices.
In addition, avoid shouting the word 'no' at your dog. Say it the same way you would any other marker. Consistency is key, and yelling can induce fear and distrust, which can negatively affect your dog's behavior around you. Instead, consider it as cause and effect. When your dog fails to comply with or violates an established rule, they are triggering a correction event. This approach teaches the dog that they control the start of these events, enabling them to learn how to prevent them from occurring. Moreover, previous training gives the dog ample opportunity to understand the rules before being corrected, promoting rapid development of reliability.
One common mistake is to abandon the correction event if the dog quickly complies after hearing 'no'. This teaches the dog that they can behave however they want, as long as they comply when you say 'no', rather than learning to avoid behaviors that trigger the correction event entirely. Always follow through with the correction when you enter a correction event to avoid this issue.
Common ways a dog may respond to the correction event:
1) Immediate Compliance: If you give a command and your dog does not comply but lays down as soon as you say 'no', you should still follow through with the correction. After the correction, if your dog maintains the position, you can either repeat the command and then praise and pet your dog, or simply praise and pet them since they are already in the desired position. Both approaches work well and reinforce the correct behavior.
2) Evasion: If your dog attempts to run from you to avoid the correction after you say 'no', calmly and consistently follow them until you can apply the correction. After implementing the correction, instruct your dog in the behavior you want them to perform. If necessary, assist them into the position using a preestablished physical cue. Give verbal praise and a pet but refrain from giving a treat at this point.
3) Run to human: If your dog runs to you or another person upon hearing the conditioned punisher ('no'), calmly apply the correction once they reach you. After the correction, guide your dog into the desired position, provide verbal praise, and pet them to reinforce the correct behavior, but avoid giving a treat.
4) Freeze in Place: Sometimes, your dog might stop in place when you say 'no', and on some occasions, even after the correction. If this occurs, re-command your dog and assist them into the position if needed. Once they are in the correct position, you can praise them and pet them, but avoid giving a treat.
The common scenarios requiring correction:
1) Your dog chooses not to respond to a command.
2) Your dog breaking a "stay".
3) Your dog violates an established rule, such as a boundary.
4) Your dog is practicing an unwanted behavior, such as digging.

    I really appreciate your clear explaination and demonstration. I've watched a lot of loose leash tutorials that aren't very instructive or require that you're constantly turning and being unpredictable with your dog. (Also looking a little silly haha) Looks like it will be a lot of work and learning in the beginning but will get better with experience and time (just like everything else!) It was great to see the progress in real time with this dog in your video

    Shocking a dog is cruel! It's a form of punishment and leads to fear. Clicker training focuses on positive behaviors. You need to control the environment. Reactivity starts with distance where your dog feels safe. My Corgi wears a martingale collar, but I don't use it for correction.

    While out on a hike at dusk yesterday my dog took off after a deer. Started to the right. When she returned after calling her back with the E collar she approached from the left. I was very thankful for the technology. 🙏🏽E collar has a 3/4 mile range but at the speed she was running that limit could have been breached fast. 😅

  • @jeffreyfrist7610
    @jeffreyfrist7610 Před 22 hodinami

    In my opinion,Garmin pro 500 E-collar is the best. Easy multiple sitting.3/4 miles range. Very durable!!!! No need to increase dialed settings. There are 7 settings. Each level has 3 separate buttons. Low. Med. high. I set my dog at 2 which is the lowest. If the medium button is not enough I will go to level 3. Secondly, never ever go to an e-collar without using correction training with either a prong collar or martingale collar. Then, to must graduate to pressure training. Your dog must have learned basic commands First before going to e-collar. Never ever use e-collar to learn a new basic command. Sit. Stand. Stay. Once your dog knows these basic commands start using the e-collar to associate command with the e-collar. Use positive reinforcement when training with e-collar. Deliver command then e-collar stim. Dog does the command. Mark the behavior: “yes”. Immediately reward with treat. Graduate to verbal command reward

    I have always struggled with the concept of an ecollar, I mean shocking your dog for a poor training outcome didn't appeal to me but hearing a full description of the method and how to associate the correction to an undesired behavior that you may be struggling to remove makes me think twice about the use. I could never use one without trying on me first however I have advocated for people who use them correctly to use them. Follow up Question would you ever backoff the correction percentage over time as the undesirable behaviour is removed?

    • @NateSchoemer
      @NateSchoemer Před dnem

      Thanks for the feedback! If the undesirable behavior has been removed than there is no reason to enter a correction event. We enter the correction event the moment the dog does the undesirable behavior, so no undesired behavior, no correction event. 😁

    • @lisafoster4468
      @lisafoster4468 Před dnem

      It's only humane if 1 you've set the dog up for success, meaning you've ramped up difficulty and distractions correctly, you are using your markers and rewards effectively, and you've set up the scenario so they can understand what you want, and 2 if it's not overkill in intensity. A trainer I once read about said it best. You must be one inch tougher than the dog, no more, no less. The higher-quality collars can be set to below the intensity a human can even feel. If you're doing it right, you're only ever setting it high enough to get a change in behavior, not distressing the animal.

      @NateSchoemer Před dnem

      Yes, I like to make sure I can keep the toy active if the dog loses interest when it stops moving. In addition, if they let go of it, you can quickly pull it away from them. This covers the main issues. We place a long line or something similar so we can move the toy from a distance. Once the dog gets it in their mouth, we move the toy as if it's a struggling prey that hasn't died yet, attempting to get away from the dog. Then we play dead with the toy; if the dog releases the grip, we quickly pull the toy away. This will make the dog hold on to the toy without wanting to loosen the grip, as that could cause the toy to move away. Once the dog catches it, we keep it active again while it's in the dog's mouth with light pops on the line that's connected to the toy. Lastly, we use another leash to guide the dog back to us. Once the dog gets back to us, we do a value transfer, like how I demonstrate in this video: czcams.com/video/MbVJJA5wy1Q/video.htmlsi=ZLkgh-D0cKOK_xT4.
