Man, I'm learning this in school and kept getting them mixed up. This really helped me understanding the differences. Very confusing to grasp at first

Tuesdays is usually a hard day for me. My infusion treatment at the cancer center. But I now look forward to Tuesdays because it's the day that Nate posts a new video. I love Nate's videos. I have learned so much. Thank you Nate for everything. Thank you for the awesome and amazing info and videos.

[@tombumpus5596]

Hey Nate. Another great, informative video! I'm wondering if you have any videos talking about how you transitioned from the marines to find the Tom Rose school and deciding to become a trainer. Watching your videos and having success with my German shepherd Creger, so far has inspired me to consider becoming a trainer.

[@NateSchoemer]

Hey Drake. No, I haven't made a video on that subject, but it may be a good idea to help others if they are trying to decide if they want to become a dog trainer or not. Thanks for the suggestion! If not a video, I think a blog post may be worthwhile on the subject. What do you think? Cheers!

Hey nate i watched your videos and just finished your book. Undoubtedly you are one of the best. Just a feedback on your book though..It would have been much better had you provided pictorial representations and links to your youtube videos wherever necessary in your book. For example in chapter 2 where you mentioned about equipment and in chapter 9 while discussing about different types of aggression etc Also please make a video on proper use of e collar Thanks for your work...

[@NateSchoemer]

I appreciate that, and great suggestions. Thank you!

Nate whats your thoughts on the AVSAB,

[@NateSchoemer]

I don't know enough about them to give you an educated opinion about the organization.

[@chrisbotsis7658]

Hey Nate another great video I have also noticed you never use prong collars or e-collars

[@NateSchoemer]

Thanks!

[@timothyomalley1851]

Why is it called negative reinforcement. I understand the concept cause you release the pressure but you have to add the pressure first. So shouldn't it be called positive negative reinforcement?

[@NateSchoemer]

Lol! It's not the pressure that reinforces the behavior, but rather the correctly timed removal of the pressure that reinforces the behavior. :) But yes, you have to add the pressure to remove the pressure. Maybe positive negative reinforcement would be even more confusing to most people, so they just left it as negative reinforcement.

[@ShivamThakur-wj5kr]

I have 3 months german shepherd . He is very very lazy , he is always staring at me and doing nothing . He only show some energy at eating time only . Please help me

[@NateSchoemer]

You can try increasing his food drive by making him work for all his food. You can also increase his toy drive by doing drive building exercises. You can see an example in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpa5iICZrMeZZ9k

[@tallybeaverman9462]

Been a Parrot Trainer for years before I got to old (70) to do shows, folks like young people to do the shows, not geriatrics. So I became a Beaver Trapper. Parrots are easier to train than dogs are. I can have a Macaw doing Basketball in 15 minutes. kzbin.info But my dog won't even pickup a ball. Very familiar with operate conditioning. Trained a bird to fly to a mailbox with a letter, put it in, close the door and put up the flag in 45 minutes of training time (5 minute sessions over 2 days). Funny part was when we were walking the dog, she flew from mailbox to mailbox putting up all the flags. Must have been frustrating for the poor mailman.

[@NateSchoemer]

Lol! Thanks for sharing the video. It must have been a fun and rewarding career. Cheers!

[@meetoo6393]

Is there anything I can do to help my Germany Shepard puppy from chasing his tail all day?

[@NateSchoemer]

If the puppy enjoys chasing his tail and you want to stop it, then you may need to use a correction to stop the behavior. Correcting the behavior with a quick leash pop. However, you should keep this in mind when adding corrections: Corrections in dog training is when we are using positive punishment to stop an undesired behavior. First, we must keep in mind that everything our dogs do is based on motivation. The motivation to access something pleasant, or the motivation to prevent something unpleasant. If your dog is practicing a behavior that is fun (self-reinforcing behavior), then you have two options to stop this. One; make sure to prevent the dog from being able to practice the undesired behavior. The second option is to use a correction to stop the behavior. A correction can be anything the dog doesn't like. So in the end, the motivation not to receive the correction must override the motivation to do the undesired behavior. If you use a correction and the undesired behavior continues, then the correction is not high enough. Here's an analogy to help understand this concept. It's important to remember that every dog has their bank account (their correction level). Some dogs are very wealthy, and some are penniless, just like people. Let's say that you are speeding down the highway and a police officer pulls you over and writes you a 25 cent-speeding ticket. The second the officer leaves, you will start speeding again because the ticket wasn't high enough to get you to change your behavior. But let's say he pulls you over and writes you a ten-million-dollar speeding ticket, now it's so high that you will avoid driving altogether, and you will be very stressed out. On the other hand, let's say he pulls you over and writes you a $125 speeding ticket. That would be enough to get you to slow down, without causing you to avoid the behavior of driving altogether. This is what we must do with our dogs; we need to correct them at a level that is adequate to their bank account. If the dog doesn't stop the bad behavior, then you may have to increase the correction. Just be sure to correct the dog in the act. In addition, proper corrections should not create a fearful dog. Usually fear when correcting a dog is due to the owner being angry, yelling at the dog, or correcting too hard. When we use a correction, it's simple cause and effect. A correction should never be personal and you should never yell at your dog. Once the correction is done, then we praise and reward our dog when they're doing what we like. If your dog knows why he/she is being corrected and knows how to prevent the correction from happening, then you shouldn't create any fear. Leash pop: This is when you make a snapping motion with the dog’s leash to engage the training-collar to give the dog a correction (a positive-punishment). If you're using a flat collar and that's not working, then you may need to use a prong collar to stop the behavior. I hope this helps!

[@andreeaflueraru5008]

Can I please ask why do you reward with treats when using negative reinforcement? I m a bit confused about that one. Thanks

[@Lucamitm]

My dog sometimes fears other dogs so i have done just what you said, i pet him under his ears to calm him down, it works most of the time, what should i do instead in this instance? Thanks

[@lindseyschroeder9767]

So, if you're using a leash to pull the dog into the behavior, what happens when the leash is not on the dog? Will he still do the behavior?

[@NateSchoemer]

Yes, they still do the behavior as long as you said the command before the physical cue when teaching the command.

[@MrBurty5]

Isn't adding pressure to a dog positive punishment what's the difference please I'm not sure why this is negative reinforced

[@RLCinGA]

I like most of your videos but this one muddied the waters and hit the same points repeatedly. I feel like I understood negative reinforcement better before watching this! 😮

I never play tug of war with a dog I work with problematic pitbulls exclusively I have been around them my whole life and have trained hundreds of dogs If not a few thousands But that's why I don't play tug of war I specialize in modifying the behaviour of problematic pitbulls specifically For some reason my #1 clients are Women who bought a male pitbull because they thought it was cute Good lord I'm the last stop before being euthanized I don't want to see any dog put down but a lot of dumb owners buy a pitbull not realizing what they have signed on to This is a dog specifically bred to kill people , why the hell some inexperienced dog owner buys the most difficult pet a person could possibly own A crocodile is a easier pet to own I won't own pitbulls anymore Too much trouble The only 4 commands I usually teach are Sit , Come, Go and Heel Stay isn't needed because Sit is Sit and don't move until I say don't saying OK Down isn't needed because Go means Go lie down somewhere I sometimes teach Stop as well In my experience the hardest command to teach is heel , especially with Pitbulls Most of the work I do is training the owners Owners can be real problematic The dog isn't a kid but the owner doesn't understand that I don't use any negative reinforcement other than Go with my tone GO I also specialize in training Dogs using hand commands only for deaf people I did it for a friend who was deaf so I came up with hand signals and methods to train Putting one finger up is sit , full hand is stop Pointing at their butt means sit as well And come is taught with the hand gesture to come Heel I find is difficult to teach problematic pitbulls because one of the biggest problem with that breed is pulling I suggest a really good body harness that has a handle to grab Thos can solve many walking problems overnight Always good to remember
