To Reward or Not Reward- That is the Question .....
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
TO REWARD OR NOT REWARD- THAT IS THE QUESTION - GOT THAT ONE !
How do we train MOVING ON v REWARD AT SOURCE in training ? Does this change for trial day ? Does our dog have clarity of a prior found hide or prior found odor ? Is this a handler construct to fit our scent detection sport for effective and efficient trial performance searching ? All these questions and more- in this insightful discussion inspired by a recent trial where as a handler I got "lost" between two mirror hides and thought a not yet found hide or new hide was potentially a prior found hide and later asked myself does that matter ? Does my dog differentiate found odor from not found odor ? New odor from old odor ? Conundrum or maybe not ?
