The Randy Hare Method

Articles should help the reader understand the training, not just repeat terms.

Randy Hare’s training articles are intended to teach the reader to think more clearly about the dog, the odor, the handler, the reward, the equipment, and the process behind reliable K-9 work.

The purpose is practical understanding. A handler or trainer should not only ask, “Did the dog respond?” The better question is, “What did the dog understand, and why did the dog respond?”
