| LATEST UPDATE | VERIFIED
Acquisition
The acquisition phase in dog training is the first stage in the learning
process. This is when the trainer begins marking certain behavior with
reward to clearly communicate with the dog a training command and / or
hand signal. The dog begins to make associations with these commands.
Anticipation
When the dog cues off of the handler's body language and anticipates the
command before any verbal command is given.
Bite Inhibition
The process of a dog learning to not put their mouth on us too hard
(biting) when they play. This often happens in the puppy stage.
Civil Agitation
A method of agitating the dog without protection equipment. The decoy
works the dog defensively and usually is in street clothing. It is also part
of the man orientation phase of training.
Prong Collar
The prong or pinch collar applies uniform pressure over the skin of the
dog's neck. It is also a very natural form of correction that most dogs
respond very well to.
Choke Collar
A collar that slips over the dogs head and when pressure is applied it
constricts or chokes the dog. Choke collars are usually metal however
they also can be made of nylon and leather.
, Flat Collar
A collar that is flat and can vary from 1/4 inch up to 2 inches wide
depending the dog and style. These collars are made from nylon, leather,
and cotton. Flat collars are general day to day type of collar that hold
dog tags and is usually worn around the home.
Competing Motivations
Often we use a reward system in training to motivate the dog, such as
treats/food, jute roll, or a ball. If the reward presented is challenged by
a greater motivator, the dog will not respond to the reward thus creating
a problem of competing motivations. In order to overcome the competing
motivator a trainer needs to turn to positive punishment, or a correction.
Compulsion
Compulsion training is also known as escape training, Compulsion is
directed to attach a cost to any behavior other than the one we are
expecting or encouraging. The dog is called on to execute commands in
order to remove the discomfort applied by the trainer. The dog escapes
the force by doing the command.
Countering
Using the dog's opposition reflex to make him counter a particular
behavior.
Defense Drive
The dog's instinct to defend it's prey, territory, or itself. This drive is
triggered by threat.
Dominance Aggression
An inherent trait that a dog displays to assert itself over a person, or pack
member. Example: A dog challenges its owner or other dog over the
possession of an object.
Fear Aggression
