What is the difference between a 'GOOD' & a 'YES"
Hey guys here is a little snippet from one of our newest courses on building focus with your dog !
In dog training, timing and markers matter.
The difference between “YES” and “GOOD” is the difference between ending a behaviour and building duration.
YES = Termination Marker
“YES” tells the dog:
👉 That was correct, the rep is over, come get paid.
What it means to the dog:
• Behavior is finished
• Release is coming
• Reward is delivered
GOOD = Continuation Marker“GOOD” tells the dog:👉 You’re right… keep doing exactly that.\
What it means to the dog:
• Stay in position
• Hold the behavior
• Reinforcement is coming, but not yet
Why this matters:
If you use YES when you should use GOOD, you’ll get:
• Dogs that pop out of position
• No duration
• Sloppy obedience
If you never use YES, you’ll get:
• Confused dogs
• No clarity
• Weaker reinforcement
Simple rule:
YES = End it
GOOD = Hold it
