CleanCanine Campus #23: Dominance Theory | Learn all about "pecking order" and where we get our beliefs and theories of alphas, pack leaders, and dominance. After the history, we get to the current science, and wrap up our three-part series on unwanted behavior, punishment, and the current science that can help us deal more effectively with these often misunderstood (and misused) concepts. All this and a big stack of listener mail! Show Notes and Links: Thorleif Schjelderup-Ebbe and "Pecking Order" on Wikipedia Dr. Sophia Yin: Ask Dr. Yin Wolf Expert L.

CleanCanine Campus #22: Punishment | In our last episode, we discussed methods consistent with a "positive" training approach for eliminating unwanted behaviors. This week, we talk about punishment, the negative effects it can have on your training agenda, and the official position statement from the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) on Punishment. All that, and we answer a BUNCH of viewer mail and calls!

CleanCanine Campus #21: Oops! Using Consequnces to Deal with Unwanted Behaviors | Positive reinforcement training teaches behaviors and decision making skills, but how do we deal with unwanted behaviors? This show demonstrates techniques for indicating a behavior is undesirable without resorting to positive punishment, especially in light of a recent study from the University of Pennsylvania indicating that dog owners who use confrontational or aversive methods to train aggressive pets will continue to experience, and perhaps even increase aggressive behavior, unless training techniques are modified.

| 14 | CleanHoliday Etiquette for Dogs | Happy Holidays from Canine Campus! We hope you enjoy the attached card and wish you and your entire pack a safe, fun, and restful holiday season. To keep the stress level low during this time of "high distraction", remember to: 1. Set your dogs and your guests up for success by providing clear communication, handy treats, and a management plan. 2. Have plenty of loaded food toys, regular toys, and quiet areas ready to provide easy distraction or comfortable time-outs. 3. Remember that the vet's office may be closed when you are at your busiest; call now to get the emergency vet phone number and post it in a handy place - surely, nothing will go wrong over the holidays, but better safe than sorry! We have plenty of podcasts lined up for the new year, and look forward to getting back in touch with you in 2008!
