A new approach to dog training emphasizes connecting with one's dog over arbitrarily changing their behavior. MarcBekoff explains how it works.
"translated into dog" based on Abraham Maslow's groundbreaking work, I wanted to learn more about it. Here's what Scott Stauffer, who coined the term K9 Life Coach, had to say.SS: The usual way in today’s dog training, whether reward- or
-based, is that behavior is strictly assessed on what you see and then [you] use the particular approach to shape the dog by changing the dog’s behavior.Though I followed the same path early in my, I had questions that took me deeper into the brain of the animal. I found many answers in neuroscience, particularly in Dr. Jaak Panksepp’s Affective Neuroscience, as well as in the mental health field. The science is already there—we “just” have to translate it into “dog.
MB: What are some of your major messages and do you have any particular methods you weave into your approach to training? SS: Emotions affect behavior! Understanding basic human and canine neurobiology can greatly help us in working with other species. Since the canine brain and human brain are very similar, Affective Dog Behavior is all about mental health, emotional and physical safety, and social and emotional connections.
We do not use rigid protocols or particular methods in our approach, as they are mostly created with the human, not the dog, in mind. Additionally, dogs have their own individual"protocols" for dealing with the ups and downs of life, and most human protocols don't consider the dog's internal processes.
