Some real irony in that video for dog trainers. How many of us have tried to make something into something it wasn't. Usually because of a lack of drive rather than an overabundance. Great story.

Any behavior that is reinforced is more likely to occur again.

That was wonderful!!!!
It is a lesson that I still have trouble with. Whenever I have spent several months to over a year of training a promising pup as a guide or service dog which develops a problem (wether behavioral or more often health related); it is so easy to feel like I failed.
I loved it too! The dog was so obviously happy with (and completely "into") this career.

There is a great lesson in this clip not only about dogs but for me as I stand aside and watch my kids enter adulthood..... sometimes it is hard to watch choices I wouldn't make but in the long wrong I am sure are probably right. Thanks for sharing Connie.
