"no" to Mistakes, "YES" to Success!

We spend a lot of time talking about Reward Markers. Do you use a "no-Reward Marker?" That is, can you communicate to your dog that a behavior will not make reward happen?

Especially when your dog is performing the details of the sport, such as fronts, finishes and pivots, it's important that you clearly communicate when he is wrong and when he is right.
