In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

  • Pros and cons of prosthetics for canine training.

  • The importance of teaching your dog to find the human being in the bite.

  • Why training biting across different textures is key.

  • Tips for safely and effectively utilizing prosthetics in training.

Key Takeaways:

  • When you're trying to approximate down in training and are using equipment, you want to use equipment that is as thin as possible, but as thick as necessary.

  • If you're beginning training with prosthetics, the arms can be a little easier to work with at first.

  • Leverage your dog's bite command right before they engage. If there is any confusion, leverage what they already know to get the behavior you're looking for.

  • Decoy schools should be teaching how to safely and properly incorporate prosthetic equipment.

"Biting any kind of equipment, the dogs are going to get used to a texture that gives their teeth some purchase in that particular piece of equipment…And so we want to make sure that they're willing to engage that new texture. We want to take advantage when we first introduce these things." — Jerry Bradshaw
