There are many different methods that pet owners and professionals use to train dogs. These training methods tend to be bases on the scientific principles of operant conditioning – which concentrates greatly on positive reinforcement.
Positive reinforcement is a great way to train your precious animal. With positive reinforcement, you are rewarding your pet for doing the behaviors you want. By rewarding a pet with delicious treats or toys will get him or her to do those behaviors more often. When you link a visual cue with motivational rewards, your pet learns that good things come when they respond correctly.
Many think of positive reinforcement as nothing more than a “bribe”. But, the reward is not supposed to be used as a bribe. The treat is simply a tool to shape good behavior in the form of being able to communicate, “Yes, you’re doing a great job!”
Be sure to check with your local pet store or Petsmart to learn more about their training classes.
