    Automatic or Manual Stay: Episode 161

    Automatic or Manual Stay: Episode 161

    I am often asked whether or not to use the command 'stay' when training dogs. In my experience, there are different schools of thought on this topic.



    I believe that there is a difference between using the command and not using it, similar to the difference between driving a manual and automatic car



    Tune in to my podcast to discover the difference it can make in your dog's behavior.

    Maximize Success in Dog Training, The Importance of Reward Placement: Episode 160

    In today's episode of the Acknowledged Dogs podcast, we're exploring the concept of reward placement and how it can affect your dog's training. Reward placement refers to the location in which a reward is given during a training session. When used correctly, reward placement can accelerate your dog's learning and improve its behavior. However, if used incorrectly, it can lead to disobedience and further problems.

This is the quintessential Dog training Pod

Episodes are concise. Information is presented in a clear and easy to follow format. It’s based on proven science and not opinion. It’s a pleasure to listen to!

Amazing dog training pod!

So helpful and has worked wonders on my pups!

Michael is a great advisor!

My husband and I worked with Michael via Zoom for several weeks after we adopted two terrier-mixes who were untrained and very difficult with unfamiliar people and dogs. His method of positive reinforcement and gentle encouragement helped tremendously. As I listen to his podcasts, I can still hear the consistent encouragement and support that he offers not only to the pups, but to their owners. Keep listening and believing…no matter where your dog is now, better days are coming.
