Conditions

When success rate fluctuates, noting the stimulus (noise, visitors, location) and reward (type, timing) helps identify causes. "あご" is currently the most stable.

Procedure

Commands with high-confidence data: 9. When session time, count, and break conditions are consistent, changes are easier to compare accurately.

Health notes

Note heavy breathing, heat stress, or fatigue signs with timestamps. These serve as load indicators.

Command Mastery Status

These records are automatically extracted from diary entries and may not reflect actual training outcomes.

There are 30 explicit location logs and 758 mixed logs right now. 2/11 commands currently have enough home/outside evidence to compare.

Training Log Template

Record the following items to review success rate changes later.

1. Set Conditions

  • Location: Home / Walk / Park
  • Stimulus: Doorbell / Visitor / Other dogs / Construction
  • Time: Morning / Noon / Evening / Night

2. Log Procedure

  • Cue: Voice / Hand / Both
  • Reward: Type and timing
  • Outcome: Successes / Attempts (e.g., 8/10)

3. Plan Next

  • Failure pattern: What caused the failure
  • Change for next time: Change only one thing
  • Health: Breathing / Fatigue / Heat

For detailed logging guidelines, see the Data Guide.

Practical Tips

Insights from Dory's training experience

Use Time Anchors

Pairing triggers with response timestamps lets you review why success dipped on a given day. E.g., 14:00 delivery -> 14:03 bark -> 14:10 calm.

Keep Sessions Short

Aim for 2-3 sessions of under 5 minutes each. Ending before focus drops increases the chance of finishing on a success.

Change One Variable

Changing location, distance, and stimulus all at once makes it impossible to identify what worked. Change only one variable at a time.

Log Challenges

Unexpected reactions and behavior issues are tracked in the Forecast. Record trigger, response, and next step together.

How Success Rate Is Computed

The primary metric is "effective success rate" which weights commands with more sessions more heavily.
