Introduction to learning techniques
I would like to introduce you to some of the training methods. These methods can be used interchangeably depending on the level of training. For example:
- Capturing a Behavior –Waiting for the response you want when the dog has learned
- Correcting a Behavior –Allowing the dog to make mistakes to help teach correct behavior
- Signaling a Behavior –Giving the dog a signal to learn a behavior
- Luring a Behavior –Luring the dog to perform a behavior
- Shaping a Behavior –Shaping a behavior one step at a time
- Ignoring a Behavior – or negative reinforcement
