Episode description

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

The evolution of training targeting, different target areas, and primary vs secondary targets.
Training bites with young puppies even before they start teething and when to start grip development.
When to teach drive, grip, targeting, and outs for the most success in biting behavior.
Making the right equipment choices for the different stages of bite training.
Progressions in targeting, why you should train rear and front targets, and how they affect launch.

Key Takeaways:

Tricep targeting is worth developing and is worth spending time on.
Take the time to learn how to work your dog on a leather strap and on a wedge during early training. Don’t expect perfection from the beginning, it is a progression.
If you’re doing your training properly, your dog should not have a fixation on the equipment that you can’t out them.
Training police dogs in biting legs can help remove hesitation and get a quicker bite on the suspects.

"Developing good targeting without developing multiple targets is a huge mistake." — Jerry Bradshaw
