Training Myth #5: Using Food to Train Is Bribery

December 19, 2019 Amy Campbell
Training Myth 5 (1).png

This myth came from a group of people that do not want to feed their dog to train them. However, expecting your dog to work for free insults their intelligence. Do you work for free? No. Even kids doing homework get rewarded for doing it – a good grade = a present from their parents, extra TV time, getting to play with friends, etc.. We all get dessert for eating our dinner, right? Using food in training is a reward for your dog choosing to do the right thing, and rewarded behavior is repeated behavior. Using food to train can be a great way to create new behaviors and better habits.
