Description

Good animal training stems from good animal handling. Part of the goal of behavior modification programs is to train animals to be responsive to even low-level cues in high-distraction environments. Frequently, we thwart our attempts at reaching this goal by either desensitizing the animal to communication from our leashes or leave ropes, or by making the animal fearful of the equipment. This lecture discusses ways to use this equipment in a more constructive and humane way to maximize the animal’s learning capacity.
