Detection Dog Training "Passive Alert" Part 1 of 3
Detection dog training video of K-9 BSD behavior shaping device which uses an "active" remote-controlled reinforcement, creating true prey hunt drive in detector dog training by disconecting the handler/trainer from the reinforcement.
The dog learns action is at the odor source creating a conditioned response to trained odor. Unmatched drive and focus for training alert and hunting behaviors. Effective with explosives, narcotics or cadaver detector dogs training.
Efficiency and accuracy in training by having the flexibility to reinforce behaviors in real work settings. Creating behavior generalization.

Detection Dog training video of the K-9 BSD behavior shaping device, which is a remote-controlled device designed to eject a variety of motivational toys a short distance, creating prey for the dog.
The K-9 BSD is highly effective because it allows the dog the opportunity and freedom to act in conducting a search in an environment containing prey. Detector dog training can take place in real world settings by simply manipulating target odor presentation and placement and then allowing the dog to both hunt and self discover with minimal trainer involvement. Effective with explosives, narcotics or cadaver detection canines.
