give him the chicken. This is CC

What are the rules for CC?
1:1 ratio US/CS Never have the CS without the US check overshadow and blocking risks and eliminate or remove the 1:1 ratio of these things Get order of events right - CS then US
32
Why are we using a kong in the upset dog CC plan?
Enrichment element May get a nice dri with the delivery of the kong we then have an operant we can use It's not always easy to see a CER so it can be easier with a kong as we can then use this as an anticipation gauge
33
What if the dog can't eat the chicken on approach?
Dog is upset. Split back. Do whatever it takes. Make it more accessible if it's a naive kong dog. reduce time even to a few seconds if needed! We've got to start somewhere!

Because he's so young! Little pup, with no long history
43
Are we 100% sure hes upset?
no - its possible he is just amped up. Not likely - but possible.
44
What is the growly pup was just going for bite without warning?
We'd be more worried about the prognosis because he doesn't have warning signals but he is just a pup so we will probably see a fast curve of change
45
What would you predict from a CER procedure wt a growly pup? if he was amped up and you did straight CC?? What would you see?
Orientation to where the treat comes from Looking at treat pouch Drooling happy/love! Orientating to a treat pouch is a B that you can then require! DRI e.g. kong/treat pouch --> tip-off that we have the orientation.
