The Science of Behavior: How Dogs Actually Learn with Dr. Susan Friedman
What do we really mean when we say “behavior”? In this powerful kickoff to Season 6 of Pod to the Rescue, we’re joined by world-renowned behavior scientist Dr. Susan Friedman, Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Utah State University and founder of Behavior Works. Together, we explore: Why behavior is an evolved adaptation The truth about reinforcement and punishment Why “scolding” isn’t necessary for learning How to build a “trust account” with your dog The ABC model (Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence) Why confidence is a label—and what it actually looks like Errorless learning and how to reduce mistakes in training How positive reinforcement builds resilience Whether you're a new adopter, foster, shelter professional, or trainer, this episode will fundamentally change the way you see behavior. Because rescuing the dog is just the first step.
