PWP 1. Social play with Uzmir.Wantijdobermann https://youtu.be/F-lqTvYn8bM

As my dog is just about 10,5 months old, reinforcers may change on a daily basis 🤪 However, this list seems to make sense for now: Food Tugging Sniffing Stones and sticks she finds (self-rewarding) Her friend Cobus (Aus. Sheperd she knows from 8wks old) When she expects Cobus to be anywhere near she gets really excited. I then try to ask her for a bit of obedience and impulse control - eg wait at the gate. She gets rewarded by being allowed to run to him (Premack Principle)

I have three dogs, so I had to make three separate lists :) Zip, the oldest dog, enjoys active and rather rough play, including body pushing. When I release a toy, he runs a “victory lap” and then comes back jumping into me and inviting me to play. He loves tugging and playful wrestling. Loves to eat too, raw meat motivates him the most. When playing with other dogs, even unfamiliar ones, he always maintains his status — no dog ever behaves disrespectfully toward him. Zip: 1 - toys, 2 - food, 3 - digging, 4 - hunting (loves to search for mouses), 5 - running. Zeta absolutely loves play, especially tug games. When the toy is released, she immediately pushes it back and often insists on continuing the game. From food rewards, cooked meat and cheese motivate her the most. When playing with other dogs, she really likes to explain and control the play process :) Zeta: 1 - play, 2 - food, 3 - sniffing and exploring, 4 - catching leaves/snow, 5 - running. Rokis is the softest and most sensitive. When learning new things, he can become more passive, block quickly, and refuse to cooperate. He likes soft toys; when I release a toy, he runs around in circles with it and shakes it, returning only when asked (he jumps back in on command, which was trained separately). He may refuse food altogether if he becomes blocked. His favorite foods are cooked chicken and beef, and the Italian soft cheese Scamorza. When playing with other dogs, he most often rolls onto his back and allows himself to be handled. He does this even if he was the one chasing the other dog. Rocky: 1 - play, 2 - running, 3 - carring sticks, 4 - swiming, 5 - food :D And in photos priority of material reinforcers.
