Bernie - Bed/Place Practice and Beginnings of Stay

Ways to help him build into the bigger/full behavior at his comfort range. How to avoid "poisoning" the skill/behavior or even the food reinforcer. Starting the dog cot upside down for starters. Puppies tend to grow into behavior, not out of it. Stay equals stay in that position until I come back and get you from that spot. No recall, you must go an retrieve your dog from their stay position. Starts off with just the time frame between reinforcement intervals. I like to think of stay like freeze tag with room service. The pup is not in trouble for breaking/moving from his stay, we would simply start again. Have a release word picked for ending the stay cue. I like "all done" but you may have another option like, "free" "all set" or something similar. Mark behavior/skills when they are in the moment of doing it and mark it with your word "yes", which equals, here comes your food reinforcement for that thing you just did. Be careful not to pair bad/scary things with a stay or place behavior. Move the cot into its upright position. Try the bed/place with the cot upright. When adding more difficulty/trying to generalize the skill/cue you may add in side to side movements from you, backing up and moving away can be too hard of a starting point. Think about your 3Ds of Training (duration, distances and distractions). Sit stays vs down stays. High rate of reinforcement to build value in being stationary. You may also add a chew item while working on a place/bed behavior and applying the stay cue.
