Show Notes

Joined by Pat Nolan, Bob and Kevin sit down to chat through all things force fetch. We discuss "unforced force fetch" and hold conditioning and ways to guide the dog through tasks. If you're interested in learning more about how Pat uses positive and negative reinforcement, then you can find his website here.

Here's a few highlights from the show:

  • We discuss what Pat considers to be properly force fetched and then we walk through his process from start to finish

  • Using both positive and negative reinforcement in the same training session.... and why he does this

  • Collars and conditioning dogs

  • Trained pressure responses

  • A "timeline" for hold conditioning and force fetch
