Fenzi Food For Thought Denise Fenzi

I decided to show you what a training session looks like today. Just the flow of it in real time.

I hadn’t planned to save it, but then I came in the house and we just talked. We talked about all kinds of things.

So if you want a random grab bag of conversation, this is your live.

No simple answer to this one. Depends on the goal, type of training. specificity of what you want, and what you mean by trained.

How do you teach a highly generalized concept like retrieve - where you might want the dog to retrieve a wide variety of items?

In this live, I touch on the difference between how I train behaviors for precision as opposed to more generalized concepts that I might want for life or dog sport.

Disagree all you want, but don’t listen to misunderstand. That’s when I disengage.

I desperately wish that training dogs was easy. I wish there was a one-size-fits-all solution. I wish all of training could be cookies and toys and general happiness.

But life is complicated and it’s not like that.

And if I come to a different place someday? If I’m able to find answers to my concerns? I will change my mind, and I will say so publicly.

Do you prioritize dogs above people? How about other animals? I wonder if that has ever happened at any other time in the history of our species….

Anyway, in this live I ramble along a bit on this topic.
