Understanding the science of dog training is going to help you help your dog with clarity. In Episode 158 of Shaped by Dog, we covered training and using positive interrupters, and a few questions came in asking how that’s different from a recall cue. The difference starts with the words “unconditioned stimulus” and knowing how conditioning works.

In the episode you'll hear:

• The news that we have a new puppy, and her name is Belief.
• More on what positive interrupters are, are not, and what I'm using.
• About conditioned cues and how you can use them.
• A refresher on location specific reinforcement markers.
• How the clicker or marker word tells your dog, "you are correct".
• Why to know what you expect your dog to do and the likelihood they will do it.
• About intentionally conditioning the words you use.
• That the clicker is not a recall cue for your dog.
• How all conditioned reinforcers have a specific role for a dog's clarity.
• The difference between a positive interrupter and a recall cue.

0:00.0	Today, my friend, you and I were geeking out on dog training.
0:04.5	I'm the science of dog training.
0:06.2	And please do not turn away.
0:08.3	I promise I'll make it entertaining.
0:10.7	I promise I'll make it educational.
0:12.5	And if you're watching this on YouTube, I promise my team is going to blow your mind
0:16.8	with how much fun the graphics will be.
0:35.1	Thank you. with how much fun the graphics will be. Hi, I'm Susan Garrett. Welcome to Shape by Dog and the content for today's podcast came from a listener who left a comment on YouTube in podcast episode number 158,
0:41.1	where I was talking about positive interruptors. And this was the comment. And actually,
0:48.1	there were two people who said, yeah, I'd like to know that too. This one came from Terry
0:51.7	Griffin who said, this just seems like a new recall. I know
0:55.9	the video starts with saying the recall is sacred, but there isn't any information that differentiates
1:02.6	the behavior of stop and find mom. Why do we need two commands? I'm glad you ask Terry,
1:10.0	because we're doing a whole podcast about it. Okay,
1:13.6	it starts with the word unconditioned stimulus. All right, all right, now,
1:20.6	now, Susan, you're going into the science of it. Oh, remember Pavlov, that Russian dude who
1:25.9	had the bell and he'd ring a bell and he'd present
1:29.5	some food paste to the dog and then the dogs would salivate? Well, the bell at first was what
1:35.6	they would call an unconditioned stimulus. Okay? So this water jug, it could be an unconditioned stimulus.
1:45.0	But every time you saw me drink water, if you were watching this from YouTube,
1:50.0	I started like throwing $100 bills around and said, you know, you can find these outside of these locations.
1:57.0	You'd want to see me drink water because it meant I was going to start giving away $100 or I might
