#106 "How does the dog feel about it" with Dr. Stewart Hilliard
Summary
In this episode, Cameron Ford sits down with Dr. Stuart Hilliard to discuss their experiences in the dog training world. Dr. Hilliard discusses the importance of looking at the scientific data and conclusions without prejudice or bias when it comes to dog training. He emphasizes the need to understand the science of aversive control and communicate what is known to practical dog trainers. The conversation then shifts to the concept of incorporating appropriate levels of reinforcement and punishers in dog training, and the search for a new term to express this approach. They also discuss the challenges of achieving stimulus control in detection dogs and the balance between specificity and generalization in Detection Dogs.
