You can correct ANY dog behavior by being consistent.

Today, discover a simple system to track your consistency when training your dog.

Show Highlights

• Today we flip-flop the episode and start with homework.
• By starting with the homework, Bennie leads into two more dog training postulates and explains them by creating a way of tracking your correction-to-praise ratio on a daily basis.
• Training takes a while, and the better you track how you are working with your dog, the better your dog will behave.
• Postulates:
  • Your dog does not really know a command or rule until she has done it 1,000 times.
  • You have to praise your dog ten times more than you ever correct your dog to really teach the thing you want your dog to do.

Homework

• Get a large calendar.
• Pick a behavior you want to work on at your home. Bennie’s example is Jumping-Up.
• Bennie gives a detailed description of how to fill out the calendar to track your progress. You can follow along in the episode starting at 2min 54sec (02:54) in the podcast, or watch the dog training calendar video Bennie made.
• This homework should take no more than 5 minutes per day.
