Changing how you think about the primary reinforcer (aka the treat) will instantly change your brain chemistry! Pawsitive experiences will follow. Reinforce that reality every day and you will see transformation. Imagine the treat as if you already have it. DO YOU BELIEVE ?

THE POWER OF REINFORCEMENT - what are you waiting for?

When a dog knows what it's waiting for because you have trained a behaviour that results in a win for the dog. Then you have your dog's full attention and participation for all the right reasons. It's good, it works, it's healthy and it's fun.

Your dog is way over there seeking out something and not able to respond to you! Seeking behaviour meets a primary emotional need in a dog's brain. That build of anticipation that drives your dog to win a reward; can cause your dog to repeat behaviours like chasing to catch other animals! That's why recall training done right with positive reinforcement, games and you, is the method that will train your dog a Reliable Recall.

Separation Anxiety is when your puppy is panicked about your disappearance. It can really help to teach your puppy a 'departure cue' and start leaving the room your puppy is in; gradually working up to a few minutes and progress from there. We all like to be informed about what to expect so we can understand what is happening and feel comfortable about it. It's the same for your dog.
