Uncut, unedited. 13 minute muzzle session with Blanca. We’re starting to get into medical handling. Some of it might not be easy to watch. Some of it may seem boring.
Most won’t find her antics as funny as we do. We’ve seen much worse here at Alpha. We’re a bit desensitized because of that fact.
Blanca is not a bad Girl.

🐾 What if the thing your dog is obsessed with is actually your biggest training asset?

That's the Premack Principle in a nutshell — and once it clicks, it changes how you see the whole environment around you.

Here's the concept: behaviour that your dog finds highly rewarding can be used to reinforce behaviour they find less rewarding. You're not fighting against what they want. You're using it.

Grandma's Rule puts it best:
🥦 Do the less fun thing first → earn the more fun thing.

In practice it looks like this:

📣 Dog rockets back to you on recall → gets released straight back into the game
🚪 Dog waits calmly at the door → the door opens
👁️ Dog checks in with eye contact on a walk → gets to go investigate that smell

No food needed. The real world becomes your treat pouch.

This is one of those concepts that sounds simple but has a huge ripple effect on your dog's impulse control and their relationship with you — so I made a full video breaking it all down:

For a client but really for everyone to help your dog stay interested and alert. A fun game of follow the leader should be fun.
