ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week, we get a bit nerdy and dive into the reality of operant conditioning.
The textbooks say one thing about how reinforcement and punishment work, but what actually happens when you apply those rules to a dog in a real-world scenario?
We break down why the standard behavioural theories might not be as black and white as people think, and explore a controversial question about how we influence our dogs' choices.
We also tackle a growing, toxic trend in the modern dog training industry. With trainers increasingly turning on each other online, we discuss what's really driving this behaviour and why absolutely nobody is immune to failure.
