Description
In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and Brad Gillespie discuss: Typical reactions from dogs to gunfire. Understanding the operational requirement of the dog that you are working with to use the best technique for training. Minding your sequencing with training the gunfire training. Being mindful of canine audiology in inside and outside training with gunfire and other loud noises. Key Takeaways: Gunfire should be background, it should not be a queue to do anything for the dog. You can create neutrality to the gunfire by firing shots from a distance, initially, while the dogs are eating. Utilizing food in the training can keep the activity levels low in a way that toys or other rewards may increase drive and activity when trying to create the neutrality. Google decibel levels of hearing damage and look at the decibels on the devices you are using. You can make things loud for long periods of time without paying attention because of your hearing protection, but your dog doesn’t have that same protection and it can cause unexpected consequences. "A lot of folks get wrapped around the gunfire itself, but don't take the time to condition and make everything else neutral. Gunfire is one thing, and it's really just noise, but the movements, the drawing of the pistol, the yelling, all of those things create a lot of problems as well." — Brad Gillespie Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com Connect with Brad Gillespie: Website: CanadianPoliceCanine.com Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training: www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube: tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon: patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/ Sponsors: ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/ Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/ Train Hard, train smart, be safe.
