    Drives and Motivation Revisited

    After our first episode on “It’s Time To Drop the Drive Word” we received a very thoughtful comment from Mr. Tom Aaron, CPDT-KA, ABCDT  from Fetchmasters Dog Training.  Tom and his wife Linda are changing the world of gun dog training by introducing new and innovative protocols focusing more on positive reinforcement procedures rather than the more traditional aversive  training techniques common to field work. We have Tom’s permission to share and discuss his comments about the idea of drives and what they mean for those involved in gun dog and field training.  We thank Tom for his detailed examples and for fostering further discussion on this topic.   One of our goals throughout our professional careers, is to bring the science of animal behavior to our work with both pet owners and pet professionals.  The application of scientific knowledge to real world issues involving animals can’t help but improve our understanding, care and management of the critters we all care so deeply about.

    It’s Time to Drop the Drive Word

    Someone recently asked in an online discussion group how they might increase their dog’s prey drive.  In a field that is striving hard to be more connected to the sciences of animal behavior and learning, for some reason the outdated notion of drives as explanations for behavior still persists.  In this podcast you’ll discover the origin of the term in the scientific literature, find out why behavior scientists discarded the notion, and what is much more helpful. Our webinar course on “Myths and Misconceptions About Motivation and ‘Drives'” delves more deeply into the subject and what’s really important – motivation of behavior.  Here’s what a few BEN members had to say about the course: “Interesting discussion. It was a great demonstration to me on how popular methodologies for training are based on assumption not fact.”  Deb R. “I liked how carefully the three terms were explained with examples that related to what I could easily grasp.  The narrow focus of this webinar allowed the topic to be throughly examined.”       Jan B.  ‘Interesting to learn about how these terms have been mis-used. Loved the explanation about “just” describing a behavior versus explaining the reasons behind a given behavior.”  Almudena O.” So join us today!

If you STILL aren’t ready for monthly education, try our 4 week course on “Shining the Light of Science on Canine Behavior” from Pet Pro Webinars, to discover even more myths and misconceptions about dog behavior that are holding you back from successfully changing behavior.   Or purchase the DVD for when you can’t connect to the digital world!

    Housetraining Essentials

    In this episode we talk about the essentials of house TRAINING. Not all house soiling problems are due to a lack of house training. Fears, anxieties, problem preferences and MORE can all be the reason underlying why dogs choose to relieve themselves inside rather than outside.  If recommendations  to resolve the problem don’t target the right “why”, your efforts will be wasted. Learn how to evaluate house soiling problems, and how to develop proven effective behavior modification plans in our How to Resolve House Soiling Problems from PetProWebinars.com CLICK HERE to read a full course description and to enroll.  Comes with a chapter from Dr. Hetts’ Pet Behavior Protocols Book!

    The Two Most Dangerous Mistakes People Make When Crating Their Dogs

    This episode was motivated by a discussion in an online forum.  The question was about recommendations for a stronger, sturdier crate that would prevent a dog from breaking out of it.  Or for ways an existing crate could be modified to prevent an escape.  That’s asking the WRONG question, as you’ll discover in this episode. Learn more about how to use crates in ways that are good for dogs and don’t cause harm with our course “Crates and Crate Confinement for Behavior Management”  from PetProWebinars.com.  While you’re there, register for our Priority Notification List, and get a free Special Report on Four Strategies to Help Pets Overcome Their Fears.

    Is Separation Anxiety Due to Over Attachment?
