I learned to add more of a pause between the mark and reaching for the reward and that really helped fix an issue I was having with my older dog.
She was watching for the movement instead of listening for the mark so she had to see me. Now that she understands she can just listen, I am getting her doing her TFR out of sight, and starting to have her oriented towards source instead of me.
Using the mark to pick out little pieces of the complex behavior I'm training allows me to put more emphasis on parts I want to strengthen and eliminate little behaviors that have crept in that I don't want. I can reinforce any little piece I need to, I don't have to wait for the whole behavior chain to be finished to reward.

I loved the clean, clear graphics and the easy-to-understand content broken down into manageable pieces.
Having this course as an outline is so useful and it would be a great way to introduce new handlers to the whole foundation of (marker) mechanics in a manageable way.
I also think it's a nice refresher as you can see ‘oh I should look at this part of the chain and evaluate my process’.
There are so many pieces of this course that can be helpful to detection dog handlers…

I needed this course before I started detection dog training.
I could have accelerated my dogs learning had I not fumbled in communicating with my dog.
Knowing and being proficient in the beginning is very important. Markers were covered in logical order and very understandable.
Everything a handler would need to know is covered.

I love having the Training Plan PDF!
I really liked the breakdown of how to use the clicker. I thought it was very concise but still easy to follow.
I like the opportunity to practice and I like that (the demo videos) were both in regular time and slow motion.

Hi, I'm Kathleen.
I'll be your instructor
What I think is MOST important that you should know about me is that I am obsessed with learning how we can do our job better.
I have spent the past 20 years studying, learning and experimenting with different training approaches…and while I have developed techniques that I have a lot of success with, I am still always looking for ways to do it better.
I have certified multiple live find and HRD dogs and I’m here to share what I have learned about the power of using markers to train a reliable search dog with YOU!

Frequently Asked Questions
In our experience having taught hundreds of handlers, we have found that even handlers who have been using markers at some level are often missing CRITICAL INFORMATION that allows them to unlock the full potential of marker training.
This course refines your marker skills, regardless of your experience level, allowing you to achieve even greater results with your training.
Is there something about your dog’s trained final response that you don’t like? Does your dog have a particular distraction, like catfish bait or rabbits, that they just won’t leave alone? Have you been trying to troubleshoot an issue but it just keeps coming back?
It's understandable that you’re skeptical about the impact of a new training method. However, marker training has the potential to significantly improve your detection training in several ways:
Improved Focus: Markers help your dog clearly identify the exact moment they've performed the desired behavior, leading to increased focus on the target odor and reduced distractions.
Faster Learning: Markers create the opportunity for precise reinforcement of desired behaviors, leading to faster, better retained learning.
Stronger Relationship: Markers promote clear communication, decreasing frustration and building a stronger relationship between you and your canine partner.
If you're struggling with unwanted distractions, inconsistent trained final responses, or simply want to accelerate your dog's training, this course provides the tools to unlock the full potential of marker training.
Unlike simply tossing your dog a toy or handing them a cookie, markers give you the tools to break down your training into smaller steps and then be able to successfully communicate to your dog when they achieve each of them correctly.
Markers address the issue of the timing of reward delivery making it clear to your dog exactly what they did right, and bridging the gap in time between when your dog did the correct behavior and when they actually will get their reward.
Markers also allow you to train a solid foundation in decision-making, direction and focus, duration, and distance in your TFR and are an essential tool when training distractions and out of site alerts. Without markers, you lack clarity and precision in your training and create frustration for both you and your dog.
In this course you will learn to master marker training and see all these benefits in your training that are not accessible any other way.
This course is designed to be valuable for individuals at all stages of their marker training journey. It provides a comprehensive foundation for beginners and advanced strategies for experienced users looking to refine and optimize their skills.
If you do not learn anything new, email us at [email protected] within 1 week of signing up and we will refund the purchase price of the course.
