In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:  Crossover effects for puppies and police dog training.  Balancing giving attention to the dog with creating independence.  Distance work versus safety-seeking and teaching independence.  Finding a balance between go and stop, with more bias toward the action of go.     Key Takeaways:  The dog should get attention when it works and does something productive, not just because it is seeking attention.  Bias to attention not action can form through too much obedience training.  Value distance work don’t just train your dog to safety seek.  Without balance, you will create unintended crossover effects. Balance is the key.      "You must reward the behaviors you want to see more of, withhold rewards from behaviors you want to see less of." —  Jerry Bradshaw     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.
