Easy-to-use dog training methods that don't require any experience or expertise
Dog owners are not trainers. Many pet dog trainers forget that most dog owners do not have their experience or expertise.
1. Pet dog training must be easy, otherwise many owners (e.g., children) can’t do it. Dog training should not require a complicated skill set, consistency, or good timing. Many owners simply do not have these skills; they need to be taught during the process. First start with the easiest technique (all-or-none reward training) and then the quickest technique (lure/reward training), before introducing more demanding and time-consuming methods, e.g., shaping.
2. Pet training should be quick, otherwise many owners won’t have the time. Speed of learning is the quintessence of successful pet owner and pet dog training.
3. It should go without saying that training should be effective. Trainers should objectively quantify behavioral change (in the intended direction) and especially, the speed of behavioral change and the Response-Reliability Percentage.
4. And of course, training should be fun — for dogs, owners and the trainer. Why not?

Put behavior on cue and motivate your dog to want to listen to you
Veterinarian, animal behaviorist, and dog trainer, Dr. Ian Dunbar received his veterinary degree and a Special Honors degree in Physiology & Biochemistry from the Royal Veterinary College (London University) plus a doctorate in animal behavior from the Psychology Department at UC Berkeley, where he researched the development of social hierarchies and aggression in domestic dogs.He has authored numerous books and...
Very knowledgeable instructor, great info brought me to a new understanding.
Love DrDunbars training methods. Easy to listen too and easy to follow
The content was good, but took a great deal of patience to get to. The lecturer rambled and went off track a bit, and sometimes unclear about what he was describing. He went through multiple examples of what not to do before explaining the proper manner of training, which seemed backwards and a little confused. It could have been about 25% charter and that would have made it more concise. Great content though.
This is perfect for the average dog owner
I thoroughly enjoyed this course, I got so much out of it.
Very intersting. I did learn things and also make me ask myself about things I had learned before regarding other training methods, that also respect the animal well being. Great course now jumping to another one 😉
Informative and entertaining
This was the first video and I expected actual training examples not a long lecture.
Good content and audio. I would have liked for there to be a summary at the end and for the slides to be visible.
