Reward based Dog Training
Reward based dog training is exactly what is says, REWARDING, not only for the dog but also for the owner/handler. By creating a positive atmosphere and environment for each and every training session, your dog will look forward to this quality time together.
Reward based training - in my opinion - works hand in hand with the Tellington TTouch Training.
TTouch helps build the bond on a whole different level, which takes into consideration the animals physical, mental, and emotional state, this in turn encourages learning,
A dog that is in a more relaxed state can focus much more effectively, than a dog in a high state of arousal.
So you can see how reward based training and TTouch work hand in hand.
TTouch helps calm the dog to enable more concentration and focus for the training session.
In my experience TTouch can become a reward for the dog, along with food treats, a favourite game or toy and not forgetting gentle praise and fuss.
Clicker Training is a great way to teach your dog new things and is totally rewarding if carried out correctly.
