You see how amazing this place is?
Just one line from the deer biscuit seller and you’ve got busloads of tourists unknowingly reinforcing the deer for bowing for their treat!
But there are some problems with this system as well, I’ll show you more in tomorrow’s black and white post. ; )
Ending this post with awful blurry pictures of this deer that strongly reminded us of Donna!!



About positive reinforcement training
Rewarding your dog immediately for the good behaviour he displayed, encourages him to repeat the desired behaviour. Consistent reforcement helps to form the desired behaviour into a habit for the dog.

About Nara Park
This was a day trip we made to the Nara Deer Park, when we visited Kyoto, Japan. It’s a large park dotted with various temples across the wooded landscape. As tourists make their way from one pit stop to another, they have lots of opportunities to meet and feed the deer.

Guess this is somewhat of a big deal to us since, we don’t have that kind of bond that people have with puppies they brought up from young, so we’re always a little insecure when Donna is not on the lead.
Happy Christmas Eve and have a merry week everyone.
