In this episode (29:12)
This is a continuation of our discussion about how you can analyze key areas of your training to help improve how easily and quickly your dog learns. In part 1, we discussed the effect of good timing and defining clear criteria. In this podcast, we discuss the effect of the rate of reinforcement, the quality of reinforcement, and the placement of reinforcement.
