Training Beyond Confusion
When training a dog for Rally, Obedience or Tracking, there will always be times when it does not respond in quite the manner we believe it should have. The same will be true for dogs being trained for competition in any of the AKC’s performance events. It is, however, possible that the dog is being willfully disobedient, but it is much more probable that it is simply unsure of what it should be doing. In simple terms, the dog is confused. Any time we have a dog, a trainer and a new learning process, it is likely there will be some degree of confusion. Confusion is a part of the learning process, but it’s something we would like to keep to a minimum, and we understand that we will have to work through it.
