Help your mates is a term touted in Australia ever since I can remember. For a while it seemed to run out of a bit of steam which is unfortunate. In some cases, people work on the premises of screw your mate.

When you watch people beating each other over toilet paper, that makes you question the integrity of mates and mate-ship.

In any emergency, you must take care of yourself first. You simply have to or the possibility of two accidents or worse exists. Then when you’re in a good position, try and be of service to others. That’s the true meaning of mates.

You don’t have to give them everything you have! Sometimes it’s just simply a beer and a chat.

Honestly, sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest differences

Positive First is a descriptive term Glenn Cooke announced earlier in one of our episodes. He feels better describes what the Balanced dog training community have been trying to represent.

Naturally, there are counter arguments that it doesn’t represent the industry based on the correct scientific terms. There was additional points that it could be perceived as to closely associated with positive only.

Glenn and Pat start to unpack the success of starting with positive reinforcement and then re assessing. This way if you start positive and can remain within that system of training, there is no problem. If you need to move along to adding aversive, then you can implement the LIMA system.

If you have never heard of LIMA, it is the acronym for, Least Invasive Minimally Aversive. it does a very nice job of describing a better selection pathway for training when using the Operant system.
