Same Home Different Rules: Will Reinforcement Based Dog Training Work?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лип 2024
- In the big picture of dog training, how important is it to be consistent? Does everyone who spends time with our dog need to follow the same rules and maintain the same criteria? If they don’t, will that hurt our reinforcement based dog training? Does maintaining criteria mean we are control freaks? These questions are ones we see frequently, and in this episode, we’re covering how it’s your relationship with your dog that matters.

This really clarified how the inconsistency between people affects dogs. My husband does follow some of my rules with my dog and was amazed when he recalled her away from me and she came. That was the key to changing his ideas about rules and permission with my dog. I'm going to show him this video to reinforce his behavior. 😀
Me and my husband. Same here. He does call me control freak. And we've had some tension over my husband's reluctancy to cooperate. I've tried to explain to him why consistency is important for the pup. I've given up "training" my husband, but I keep on being with my dog in a consistent way. And it seems that my dog is intelligent enough to know the difference.
Super helpful. This describes our home situation to a T 🙈🤣... my husband is forever moaning that our dog doesn't listen to him and yet he doesn't want to play games or train with him. I will continue to try to get him on board, but am so happy and relieved to hear that regardless of whether or not he trains/plays the games it won't effect our journey. Thank you Susan 😘🐾
"Transfer of value." Wow, that really explains it. I admit to being a bit sloppy about door manners. I can see very clearly now, why I should spiff them up. Thank you! Freshly baked, vegan chocolate chip cookies: 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
Love it
Hubby is the same
I found that they listen to me think of hubby as a buddy
Glad I am not alone in this issue
Thank you for this one 😊 All I needed to hear. And I see this at home also... Good to know, it doesn't matter that my husband isn't consistent. Only that I am! ❤
There is so much information here! Thank you Susan. It really helps to understand the nuances.
I'm so relieved my household isn't the only one where I'm the "control freak" and husband couldn't care less about training... interesting trend, eh? lol
Loved this! Also, how do you train a dog to not want to get up on the couch? I’d love a podcast on that!
Thanks you so much, you är THE best!?!
Another amazing podcast, thank you Susan’s and your team! I was wandering if you could explain more dog’s adolescence and how to change your training plan accordingly to the challenges owners are facing? I know that the most common age that dogs are given to rescue centres/are rehomed is between 6-18 months. I personally have a teenager and can see how challenging and sometimes frustrating it can be (I’m always upset with myself, not my pup). And I can also see on different forums that people are really struggling and need help with understanding what’s happening with their brains and how does it affect their behaviour. Thank you!
The sleeping at work example had many inaccuracies as regards the results. However, the information here is very valuable. I do have questions for Ms. Garret. More like a challenge. Where do I get in touch ?
Hello @Saradhi Ananth, our email address is wag@dogsthat.com
Our dog knows how to behave with me but not without my wife. She expects him to behave but refuses to work with him, play with him, etc
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My dogs actually ignore my husband 😆 He calls them and most of the time they won't come. He doesn't have any connection or relationship with them so..... yah 😉
ya! Control freak?! seriously? Until your dog kills the neighbors cat, trips you and you fall down the stairs, or gets hit by a car. OR sprayed by a skunk. Do you want the dog to wait until you say to avoid these things??? Hubby in this story better smarten up.
