Patreon March Deep Dive: Service Dog Puppy Training - What I Train First

The concepts and behaviors I prioritize training for a young service dog prospect! Spoiler Alert: it’s not obedience ... Things I Address First Potty Training Relaxing in a crate/settling time Body Handling Active Socialization Passive Socialization For Training: General good feels about training. I pick what the dog will excel at, and train that. So if they are super energetic and are going to suck at stays, I might teach it’s your choice, but not a stay.

Ok! Lots of questions. How long do you focus on these behaviors before you start to weave in other behaviors? Do you continue to prioritize the behaviors until the behaviors are considered finished and the behavior can be generalized in many places? If a puppy has shown they are capable of one behavior, for example, luring, do you fade out the luring and only use it when necessary to teach a behavior? Are there a set of behaviors you replace these focus points as the dog begins to get a handle on them? Thank you!!

Because every dog is different, it's really hard to say exactly what I do with each dog, for how long, etc. Generally, I"ll start weaving in other behaviors based on what my dog enjoys. I really like teaching tricks, so I add those in, simply because I think it's fun. I don't wait until they are "finished" behaviors, as I'll be proofing them throughout training. Regarding luring, I fade lures as soon as possible, and then bring them back into the picture when I'm retraining the behavior in a new location to help the dog succeed, and then fade them out of those locations quickly. Regarding replacement - that really depends on the dog and the goals, but I'll be using these foundation behaviors for the life of the dog, so I continue to work on them in different environments, and then progress them into new behaviors as the dog learns, especially with targeting behaviors.
