trained boundary

8/14/2014

4

Foundation training of food bowl game and flyingcookie game will help create the necessary selfcontrol

7


Self Control

The food bowl game: use a food bowl to proof sitmaintain. Build up to teasing the dog with the bowl The flying cookie game: cookie flies increasingly

more difficult flight patterns tempting and teasingyour dog. Click and treat only occur when dogdemonstrates self control

8


Food Bowl and Flying Cookie

8/14/2014

5

Dog politely sits or downs on a mat or dog bed, thishas been trained as a behavior incompatible withambushing visitors at the front door

9


Waiting on a Mat

As previously discussed in Skills 306 O your dog hasbeen taught to politely greet people and this behaviorhas been generalized to the front door

10


Four on the Floor

8/14/2014

6

Your dog is trained to sit and hold that positionregardless of whether a person enters the home ornot

11


Sit Maintain

Your dog maintains her distance from the front doorbecause she is trained to remain in a specific targetarea, behind a boundary, which makes jumping on aperson or otherwise rude greeting impossible

12

Shape, capture or prompt your dog getting on to amat Put going to a mat on cue Give this cue at gradually increasingly more difficult

times Work when dog is tired and more likely to want to

lay on mat Consider using a manners minder

18


Waiting on Mat

8/14/2014

10

As previously trained Consider addition of Kong Consider use of Manners Minder

19


Four on the Floor

Make sure you have sit –stay on cue Make sure you have leave it on cue Make sure you have exposed your dog to concept of

climbing the ladder of difficulty Create a customized plan of how to get your dog to

this goal

20


Sit Maintain

8/14/2014

11

Start with super easy frontdoor games – you comingin your own door whileyour dog waits, then buildup to another familymember, then a neighbor, Set up for success by

having dog tired beforetraining Manage to prevent

failures

21


Sit Maintain

Teach the concept of boundary BEFORE attemptingto use a boundary Shape, capture and/or prompt the boundary Make it fun to be in the “hot zone” Proof!

22


Boundary

8/14/2014

12

Gradually via pingponging, increasedifficulty of the doormanners behavior Distance – vary distance to

the person entering home Distractions – vary difficulty Excitement level – vary low to

high Durations – vary time periods

before you release your dog

23


Climb the Ladder

F R O N T D O O R M A N N E R S : O V E R P R E P A R EO R F A I L !


24

Generalization

8/14/2014

13

Just as you created a list of things your dog reallylikes to determine your dog’s favorite things in theworld –customize your proofing List of reinforcers List of difficulty Ping pong difficulty as usual Harder things pay more money

25


Customize

As usual use Differential Reinforcement of ExcellentBehavior

26


Differential Reinforcement

8/14/2014

14

Be sure to create a plan exactly how you are going totrain your door manner behaviors Include over preparing – what if ten people walk in

the front door at the same time? What if there arethree deliveries back to back? Include area of reinforcement and click points Video your progress

27


Plan, Train and Video

Failures should be kept to less than 10% of doormanners greetings Failures are information for what you need to adjust There can be no more than one failure at a time

because you will immediately adjust and lowercriteria

28

Antecedent Control

Click and treat your dog for glancing at the front door Click and treat your dog for glancing at the front door

after the doorbell or a knock sound Click and treat your dog for doing the behavior you

picked as you approach the front door Click and treat your dog for doing the behavior you

picked as you put your hand on the door knob Click and treat your dog for doing the behavior you

picked as you crack the door

30


Look Game

8/14/2014

16

Unwanted barking will be addressed in Skills 306 Sthis will also address turning barking off Click and treat your dog for noticing the bell/knock Include barking or not barking in this depending on

what your end goal is Most people want to be alerted to a bell or knock

31


Listen Game

Get your clicker and treats and let’s make thingsburst into flames! Click and treat rapidly with a click and treat every 2-

3 seconds!

32


Rapid Fire!

8/14/2014

17

Jackpot Game

Set up a harder situation foryour dog If your dog does the ideal

door manners behavior:JACKPOT! A handful on the mat A long game of fetch in

boundary area A favorite game of tug – on mat

or boundary area


33

Training Tips


34

8/14/2014

18

Intimidation: Just say no

It can be tempting to yell or fuss at your dog This is can be reinforcing for some dogs It can be tempting to feel shoved and thus shove dog

back This is can be reinforcing to dogs


35

Ideally No Cue

Avoid giving a cue Use situational cues Door bell/knock You approaching front door

Dog will automatically offerthe end goal behavior whenhe is trained


36

8/14/2014

19

Over Preparing

You must over prepare for training door manners The hardest situation you can think of must be made

even harder in practice Training to real life, you can lose up to 50% or more

of your generalization training Thus you must OVER PREPARE!!!!


37

Over Prepare!


38

8/14/2014

20

High Motivation Dogs

Make sure they have the edge off- run full speed Mentally and physically needs are met, so success is

highly probable


39

Vary Your Reinforcers

Don’t get stuck in boring patterns of always using thesame reinforcers VARY food VARY toys VARY games


40

8/14/2014

21

Energy aka Emotional Contagion

Gradually climb the ladder ofdifficulty Start with low key energy and

boring emotions and simple setups Ping pong your way to the most

extreme door mannerrequirements – several peopleentering doorway with highenergy


41

No Naughty Chaining

No poop chaining – NOT a scientific term! Antecedent door bell Behavior dog runs to door jumps on door, then

dog goes to mat or boundary area Consequence click and treat CAUTION this is a naughty chain!


42

8/14/2014

22

Clean Behavior Chains

Rapid fire Gradually increase time between clicks Start over if your dog does something unwanted!!!


43

Use Differential Outcome Effect

An outstanding fast and difficult four on the floorearns MORE reinforcement that is of higher quality– THROW a PARTY for your DOG! An mediocre four on the floor gets a mediocre

reward


44

8/14/2014

23

Door MannersTraining Problems


45

Barking!

Barking will be discussed in another module but aquick training tip for dogs that excessively bark atthe door is to cue them to grab a stuffed animal This muffles the sound of the bark and is somewhat

incompatible with barking Redirects the dog to another activity – let’s go outside


46

8/14/2014

24

Multiple Contingencies

Behavior happens in layers Good training looks at all layers for dog and humans Dog: Person appearsDog jumps self reinforcing Dog: Dog has anxiety and there is an environment

change Dog Jumps self reinforcing Owner: Dog jumps Owner yanks and yells at dog Owner feels relief (catharsis)


47

If a dog has anxiety or is conflicted about the frontdoor go SLOWER Address anxiety with behavior consult PTSD Anxious dogs do a lot of comfort seeking which can include

jumping on people

48


Anxiety is Separate

No door bolting here

55


Open Door is Cue

Clients with back yards accidentally train dogs tobolt through back door this generalizes to front door Dog is physically under stimulated Dog had great adventure and was chased last time

56


Door Bolting Danger

8/14/2014

29

Make being inside much more reinforcing thenoutside Self control at front door pays big bucks Self control at front door gets you 30 min of play in

back yard
