In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and Brad Gillespie discuss:  Following principles, not just techniques and procedures.  Distraction is zero sum.  “Then what” not “now what.”  Balance horsepower and breaks – horsepower first.  Detection, muzzle work, and tracking.     Key Takeaways:  Always be learning – the goal is to suck less tomorrow than you do today.  If you are too worried about your dog biting your back up officers that you are not able to do your job, it becomes a problem.  Let the dog learn to learn! Let the dog want to learn!   Experience is making mistakes and learning from those mistakes.     "The behavior, ultimately, is all that matters in the end. Is it reliable? Is it repeatable? Can we use it operationally? How you got there doesn’t really matter." —  Brad Gillespie     Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com      Contact Jerry:  Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com  Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com  Youtube:  tarheelcanine  Twitter: @tarheelcanine  Instagram: @tarheelk9  Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining  Protection Sports Website:  psak9.org  Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression        Train Hard, train smart, be safe.         Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie     Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
