Sometimes people need a visual to understand what Positive reinforcement actually means. So I decided to put the information in a chart to help better explain the training method.
Positive = add something (either pain or reward depending the training method)
Negative = take something away (either discomfort or reward depending on the behavior)
Reinforcement = to increase behavior
Punishment = to decrease behavior

I hope that you find this information helpful. If you would like more information on on my training services or anything else please feel free to contact me for questions. You can also find more on my FAQ’s page how to find the trainer that best aligns with what you and your family are looking for.
Wags,
