Unlock the Reinforcement Secret That Makes Training Actually Stick
Your dog’s ‘bad behaviour’ isn’t about stubbornness, defiance, or dominance - it’s about reinforcement. Every behaviour your dog chooses has a payoff, and once you understand what that payoff is, you hold the key to transforming their behaviour for good.
In this week’s episode of The Walk & Talk, we’ll unpack the science of reinforcement and dive into exactly how to shift your dog’s habits using modern, professional, positive training methods.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated by your dog’s behaviour, this episode will reframe everything - and give you the practical tools to create lasting change!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why all behaviour is driven by a payoff - and how to identify what that is
How functional analysis reveals the real reason your dog does what they do
The four reinforcement functions that explain nearly every ‘bad behaviour’
Common myths about dog behaviour… and why they hold you back
Science-backed strategies to shift reinforcement and build better habits
How to stop battling your dog and instead collaborate with them
