In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:   Obedience and capping in drive.    Leveraging reward systems and using queues in drive to prepare for capping.    Utilizing different tools and training progressions to properly train drive.    Drive training with different canines.      Key Takeaways:   Suppressing the dog’s behavior is not obedience or capping because it isn’t channeling their energy into something. We don’t want to suppress - this creates behaviors we do not want.    Dogs that are dirty in their outings are struggling in their drive capping.    Don’t be scared of the expression - it should not make you nervous. But you want them to also be able to cap and be quiet. Neither should be sacrificed for the other.    Make sure to train your dogs in all situations and around decoys in full kit.      "If all we ever do when we're doing obedience on a dog is just suppress the hell out of them, then we're not doing obedience in drive, nor are we doing drive capping." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Episode References:    The Companion Dog Podcast - https://losthighwaykennels.com/podcast/    The Working Dog Depot Podcast - https://www.doublehcanine.com/the-working-dog-depot    Controlled Aggression -  Defensive Dogs in Protection   Detection Blueprint    Restraining Canine Drives      Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/      Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/  The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
