Does positive reinforcement work?

Positive reinforcement is an efficient way to enforce good behavior out of your pet. 

 Positive reinforcement can include food treats, praise, petting, or a favorite toy or game.

When your pet is learning a new behavior, reward him every time he does the behavior. This is called continuous reinforcement.

Once you start giving your dogs reinforcement, they will do that behavior more and more to receive the treat or praise.
