operant conditioning; operant conditioning as analogous to
natural selection; carrots and organic gardening: why choose
positive reinforcement; unconditioned vs conditioned
reinforcers; behavioral markers as the fulcrum; creating new
reinforcers; preserving existing reinforcers: satiation,
inadvertent chaining; and reinforcement timing.
Day two addresses reinforcement frequency & schedules of
reinforcement; seeing behavior: setting your filter;
maximizing reinforcement opportunities: minimizing the need
for punishment; what if the environment offers better
reinforcers than you have; limits of what reinforcement can
do; behavioral economics and the "reinforecement package";
placement of reinforcers; choosing types of reinforcers; and

This seminar was presented by Ahimsa Dog
Training of Seattle, WA in June, 2008.
Cueing for reliable dog training is the focus of this seminar for
class instructors, dog trainers, and dog owners, all of whom want
compliance. They want their dogs to respond to "commands" accurately and
quickly . People often attribute a dog's failure to respond instantly to
dominance, stupidity or stubbornness. It is more likely that these
mistakes result from the dog's confusion (or insufficient motivation);
the dog doesn't know what the trainer wants because the cues are
unfamiliar, inconsistent or unclear. In this training seminar, you will
learn to improve the process by which you choose, add, change and
maintain cues in animals you train. By training skillfully, you will be
able to minimize the amount of static in the signals you send your dog,
providing a clearer channel of communication.
An understanding of behavioral cues will also
pave the way for the creation of conceptual cues that go beyond
eliciting simple movements. Your dog can understand more than you
might think, and this seminar will help you teach these advanced skills!
This hands-on dog training workshop by Kathy Sdao in Seattle combines
lecture, video examples and several exercises with owners & dogs. .
Kathy walks you through the steps to build strong meaningful cues in
this continuing education seminar. |

Does your dog lunge, bark, snap, go berserk or just get out of control at the sight of another dog or person? Learn how to
prevent trouble and turn anxiety-ridden walks into relaxing, peaceful strolls! This is a full day workshop that combines
lecture on the science of classical conditioning with hands-on demonstrations using dogs that lunge, bark, or snap at other
dogs. Kathy teaches how to humanely correct this behavior, using techniques that are also applicable to dogs that display
aggression to people. |

Dog Sense Course by Terry Ryan - Sequim, WA 2004
This is a one day course. Whether you're new to dog training or have been training for years, you may be confused by the
terminology and the reasons behind some of the things we do. Here's a crash course in what learning theory and, more
specifically, clicker training are all about. You'll learn how it works, why it works, and what you need to know about the
underlying science to take our training to a new level. We'll also cover the "other" type of learning: classical
conditioning. This presentation is mostly lecture, with a few hands-on exercises for the human and dogs. |
