General Dog Knowledge: #1 How Dogs Learn
- Dogs can also learn from observation yes? Do we know the motivator for this? Is there a common reinforcer for this process or does it vary?
- In classical conditioning there is a primary reinforcer (food) that is associated with a secondary reinforcer (clicker). There is a “third” reinforcer mentioned as a sound (“good boy”). But is this preceded by a stimulus (command) and a response (desired behavior)?
- When feeding with raw food we have done a command followed by a behavioral response followed by a sound followed by a click followed by food. Time is needed however to get the food into the bowl (from the main bow). Where should this happen in the chain (where is a delay acceptable)?
- When you are walking backwards handfeeding, please review when you should be clicking (followed by food)
- Is there a time component (of minimizing delays) with operant conditioning?

- How can a tool remain “neutral” if you use it for various things? Is it only because there are too

- Do you ever use a muzzle as a tool? Should we?
- In training, we begin with luring then visual then auditory cues. Does the luring utilize the sense
of smell then?
- Is there a video of luring techniques to review?
