Training Faster Behaviors Without Frustration, Part 1 | Hannah Branigan
About this episode
This episode discusses the concepts of speed and latency in dog training, the role of motivation, and the importance of the training environment.
In this episode we discuss: Speed vs. Latency: Speed is how fast a behavior is completed from the time it starts. Latency is the response time, or the time elapsed between when the cue is perceived and when the behavior starts. Motivation: While motivation is essential, it is just one piece of the puzzle. Overemphasizing motivation can lead to frustration, which might not always yield the desired outcomes. Natural Behavior Efficiency: Given a stable training environment, behaviors naturally trend towards faster, more efficient performance over time. Training Environment: The importance of considering training conditions (e.g., environment, timing, footing) to ensure optimal speed without inducing frustration. Pay attention to when, where, and under what conditions your dog already moves faster For full show notes and transcript, visit: www.hannahbranigan.dog/podcast/186 This episode is supported by Patreon: www.patreon.com/DFTT
