Shaped by Dog Podcast with Susan Garrett - Do Different Dogs Really Need Different Dog Training Methods? #193 #podcast

Somebody has likely told you that not all dogs can be trained the same way and that different methods are needed for different dogs. Is there truth behind this? I'm covering how different dogs might need different training approaches, but the word philosophy should replace method. Plus, I'm sharing why the dog training philosophy I choose aligns with my heart and an invitation to everyone to consider trying something different. 00:00 Every dog can learn using kindness, clarity and choice-based games. 01:31 All animals are governed by the laws of learning. 02:00 Dog training philosophies vs. dog training methods. 02:23 Punishment in dog training. 03:11 Susan Garrett’s dog training philosophy. 03:51 Expect more of yourself than your dog. 05:03 Adjust training approaches for dog’s individual needs. 08:01 The slow evolution of dog training in the past century. 09:00 My training method was mocked and now accepted everywhere. 11:15 Why positive punishment in dog training will be obsolete. 14:06 Open invitation to all dog trainers for respectful dialogue. 14:24 Confirmation bias, belief loops and challenging dog training assumptions. 15:35 Help dogs choose to be correct in controlled environments. In the episode you'll hear: • How any dog can be trained using kindness, clarity and choice-based games. • Why my philosophy doesn't involve the use of positive punishment. • That the expectations of ourselves should be higher than those we put on our dogs. • The difference between dog training philosophies and dog training techniques. • How my training approach will differ for dogs as individuals. • About the dark history of dog training and its slow evolution. • How my training method was mocked decades ago but is now widely adopted. • My invitation to open-minded dog trainers who use positive punishment. • How confirmation bias subtly influences our worldviews. • Why I choose to train with kindness, choice, clarity, and positive reinforcement. • Different ways I change my training technique based on what a dog needs.
