In dog training, Enabling Constraints
Constraints are restrictions or limitations placed in the environment to limit or restrict actions. are purposeful boundaries or limitations set by the handler to shape and guide the dog’s behavior within a specific framework. These constraints simplify complex tasks by focusing the dog’s attention, encouraging problem-solving, and facilitating learning, all while allowing freedom within the structured environment. Enabling constraints help balance structure with flexibility, supporting the dog’s natural instincts and skills while directing them toward the desired outcome.
