  • The Evolution of Police Dog Training with Dr. Stewart Hilliard

    The Evolution of Police Dog Training with Dr. Stewart Hilliard
    Jul 16 2025
    In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and Dr. Stewart Hilliard discuss: The influence of European sport dogs in early North American working dog training. Benefits and challenges of introducing KNPV-trained dogs to the American market. Evolution of Eastern European working dog trade. Sourcing and importing working dogs. Institutional breeding programs, increased costs, and decreased quality. The future of dog training with kynology. Key Takeaways: KNPV (Royal Dutch Police Dog Association) dogs were the gold standard for transitioning sport dogs to dual-purpose police dog prospects. KNPV dogs were not trained to distinguish between equipment and humans, which gave those early Malinois dogs a bad reputation. Dogs that come from a deprived background with limited experiences often need to be deprogrammed before they can be taught to forget, then taught to learn what they need to know. Don’t kill your dog by playing with it. The dog’s reward is not a toy; it’s a reward. Toy implies play, and these are working dogs. Malinois and German Shepherd dogs are not fully adult dogs until 2.5-3. Younger dogs are more vulnerable to mistakes and stress, leaving you, as the trainer, with the technical burden of not making many mistakes. "I think the future is going to be agency-based breeding, heavily informed by scientific practice, but also with strong participation of practitioners - practical dog people who know how to produce results. Those are the agencies that are going to do really well." — Dr. Stewart Hilliard Contact Stewart: Website: https://www.caninetrainingsystems.com/ Book: Schutzhund, Theory and Training Methods - A Book by Susan Barwig and Stewart Hilliard, Ph.D. - https://www.caninetrainingsystems.com/product/B-SCH-BAR/Schutzhund-Theory-and-Training-Methods-A-Book-by-Susan-Barwig-and-Stewart-Hilliard-PhD Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training: www.tarheelcanine.com YouTube: tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon: patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/ Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/ Sponsors: ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/ The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/ Train hard, train smart, be safe.

  • Engagement

    Engagement
    May 6 2025

    In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

    • Why engagement is important, what it means, and how it differs between puppies and older dogs.

    • The importance of rituals in engagement, no matter the location.

    • Developing engagement and engagement rituals.

    • Creating and maintaining an emotional connection with your dog, no matter your emotional state that day.

    Key Takeaways:

    • If your dog is not in the right state of mind, you’re not going to achieve your training goals in a particular session. If it happens too many times, you won’t be moving forward in achieving your training goals.

    • You should be creating an emotional connection with your dog when you’re training and working with your dog.

    • Whether you are training at a club or in your backyard, you want the ritual to be consistent so your dog knows that it is game time.

    • Engagement does not just happen at the beginning of your training session - it should go through the entire session to keep the dog’s attention and keep them engaged no matter how many repetitions.

    • Stop training when you’re at the peak of it. Leave the dog wanting more for next time.

    "Developing good rituals for engagement means you're going to be training better, right? You're going to be ready ahead of time. You're going to be creating expectations in your dog. When one repetition is over, we want that dog to have the expectation that they're going to get to do it again." — Jerry Bradshaw

  • Back to the Laboratory in Detection

    Back to the Laboratory in Detection
    Mar 7 2025

    In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

    • The practical differences between direct reward conditioning and indirect reward conditioning.

    • Primacy of learning and conditioning hunting as a means of locating odor.

    • Understanding the foundations built into your dog’s early training.

    • Utilize the quality of hunting as the barometer to show your dog’s interest.

    • Giving varied and unique hiding places for the odor to your dog in training.

    • Creating sticky behavior in your dog when searching.

    • Building variability to maintain behavior over time.

    Key Takeaways:

    • In the direct reward methodology, we are pairing hunting and odor recognition. It teaches an olfactory queue to get an obedience behavior.

    • In the indirect methodology, we pair the final response and the odor recognition.

    • Variation in hunting volume and variable reward in finding the target order are extremely important.

    • Remove handler dependency as much as possible. You don’t want your canine to be obsessed with you, your reward delivery, and presentations. You want them to have enough independence to do their work without influence from you.

    • Mimic what you see in deployment in your training and in-services. Those pictures should be aligned, your dog doesn’t know the difference.

    • Clearing blanks is something your dog needs to know how to do because that is what they’re going to see often in deployment.

    "Variable reward is the thing that's going to really keep your dog at a high level of engagement in the hunting process over longer periods of time and more area that we're asking them to cover, and it's very important to master variation in how you do detection." — Jerry Bradshaw
