Positive Training Doesn’t Mean Permissive Training
Episode 19
Tuesday, 9 June, 2026
Send us Fan MailMany dog owners believe they have to choose between being strict or letting their dog do whatever they want. In this episode, Josh tackles one of the biggest misconceptions in dog training: the idea that positive reinforcement means permissive training.Positive training is not about bribing dogs, avoiding boundaries, or never saying “no.” It’s about teaching clearly, rewarding the behaviors you want, preventing unwanted behaviors from being rehearsed, and helping dogs make better choices.Josh shares his personal journey through 20 years of dog training—from dominance-based methods and corrections to science-based positive reinforcement—and explains why he ultimately changed his approach.In this episode, you'll learn:🐾 Why positive reinforcement does not mean permissive training 🐾 The difference between boundaries and punishment 🐾 How to use consequences without intimidation or fear 🐾 Why management is a critical part of training success 🐾 The difference between rewarding and bribing 🐾 Real-world examples of jumping, barking, pulling, and puppy biting 🐾 Why positive training often requires more skill, patience, and planning than people realizeWhether you're raising a puppy, working through reactivity, or simply trying to better understand your dog, this episode will help you create more clarity, structure, and trust in your training.Remember: Stop focusing only on what you don't want your dog to do. Start teaching what you do want instead.
