Developed by Jessica Probst, due to seeing common communication problems between dogs and owners. Based on Operant Conditioning, this concept highlights the need for nice timing when training a dog (or any animal) Jessica uses it with her chickens and horses ! The Yes word acts as a 'Terminal Marker' indicating the end of a required, or offered behaviour. When the connection is learned by the dog, it can become a very powerful tool, meaning the trainer can then adjust the interval between behaviour and reward, or continuation of the same behaviour.
