PA Beer Distributors Can Now Sell Singles & Six-packs! 'Free the six-pack' law goes live in Pa. As of January 17, 2017, beer distributors are no longer handcuffed to the case as the "free the six-pack" laws went live in Pennsylvania.

sale of retail and wholesale licenses, estimated to bring in $1 billion a year.

"How were we supposed to compete with their corporate deals?"

"Why don't we have choice? Why don't we have convenience like the other 48 states in the union?" Republican Corbett asked in 2013.

Weaver said that grocery stores are able to upcharge up to a 40 percent margin, something the smaller distributors cannot afford to do. He called the law allowing distributors to sell six-packs "payback."

His Democratic successor, Wolf, vetoed legislation for liquor privatization in 2015 because he said it was "bad for consumers."

Single and six-pack sales had already popped up in grocery stores around the commonwealth but the distributors had to stick to wholesale, which has been a detriment to their bottom line.

"It makes bad business sense for the commonwealth and consumers to sell off an asset, especially before maximizing its value," Wolf said.

Gov. Tom Wolf signed legislation back in November that allows beer distributors to sell six-packs and refillable growlers. Additionally, liquor sales will be permitted at 9 a.m. on Sundays, rather than 11 a.m.

However, Wolf said that he was open to making wine and beer available in more locations like supermarkets.

"Creating and following this precedent will make the commonwealth more inviting for customers and businesses," Wolf said in November. "It will address a long-standing failing of our liquor and alcohol system while we continue to work on customer satisfaction for all Pennsylvanians." Wolf has stopped short of full privatization of liquor stores, but has shown a desire to open up sales to private business. Former Gov. Tom Corbett was enthusiastic about pushing forward liquor privatization. Some of the plans included easing of restrictions on the sale of six packs of beer, while the more aggressive measures called for replacing state-owned stores with twice as many private outlets. Corbett referred Pennsylvania's liquor laws to as a 75-year-old "antiqued system" and his plan was to ease the state into offering the

In June 2016, Wolf made good on his word, and for the first time since before prohibition Pennsylvanians were able to buy wine and beer at grocery stores, the first step in loosening the state's hold on alcohol sales.

"We want a fair playing field," Weaver said. "It'll help us stay in business, but there was a lot of key revenue lost." Nearby at Beer Guys in the Manoa Shopping Center in Havertown, owner Raj Mody said it will be a "welcomed change" to sell individual beers. "People are going to be able to come in and mix and match," Mody said. "They can try before they buy a case." For distributors, freeing the six-pack means a win for the little guy.

However, for beer distributor owners who after years of paying licenses that limited their sales felt as though the sudden inclusion of grocery stores to sell beer in more reasonable quantities was damaging to their business. "We should have been allowed to do it first," said Gene Weaver, manager of Manoa Beverage on West Chester Pike in Havertown.

A shopper at Giant Food Stores in Havertown pores over the selection of six-pack beers. As of January 17, 2017, any beer distributor in Pennsylvania may sell beer individually or divide cases into six-packs.

Crowlers, Growlers, & Six-Packs - Oh My! A CROWLER® (CAN + growler) is a 32-ounce CAN filled with fresh craft beer from the source. Yep, draft beer in a portable growlersized CAN. It's the newest innovation coming from the Oskar Blues Brewery taproom and their development partner Ball Corporation, the pioneers of the American craft beer in-aCAN movement. "We get off on pushing the limits, doing things differently and the CROWLER® is another step of innovation to take advantage of what the can package has to offer from behind the bar. More beer options in more cans, we're working on creating one big glasshole" Says Jeremy Rudolf, the man behind the CROWLER® integration at Oskar Blues. Craft beer drinkers dig their growlers filled in local taprooms, but standard glass growlers are often brought into pubs and tap rooms without being cleaned correctly, which affects the taste and cleanliness of there fill. They also don't seal well and allow light in, while the Crowler® is more portable and takes advantage of what the can has to offer by eliminating light-struck or skunky beer. The CROWLER® is a one-use, recyclable 32oz can that is filled and seamed right at the bar in the Tasty Weasel Tap Room in ColoRADo, using an All-American Can Company seamer. This is a tabletop design commonly used for canning homemade food into steel cans and allows you to take home one-off and specialty beers. The filler was modified to work with aluminum and the height adjusted to accommodate the CROWLER® height. Just like its smaller 12oz.counterpart, the CROWLER® is made from aluminum that has 68% recycled content and also is infinitely recyclable.

LENTEN

Here's how a CROWLER® works: Oskar Blues added a CO2 purge station to purge the cans before filling them, which helps assure that there is no beer-degrading oxygen added to the beer. The CROWLER® is purged and immediately filled. Then the lid is applied and the CROWLER® is placed onto the seamer pedestal. The pedestal is turned so that the can is raised up and locked under pressure into the seamer. Turn it on, and push GO. Turn it off, twist the pedestal to lower the can, and take it with you to enjoy. Once you open the CROWLER®, drink it up - ensuring the craft beer is consumed in a single serving while the beer is in its prime, just like in the taproom.

allows OB beer lovers to get a reasonable volume of any beer on draft to go in a protected & portable new package. 32 ounces is great for a barrel-aged or specialty beer from a price standpoint, plus it's a volume that can be consumed in a single sitting with a friend (or six). As always, CANs, even big ones, are more portable and less breakable than glass, making the CROWLER® a natural partner for your next beer soaked outdoor experience.

Why CROWL? Oskar Blues and Ball have worked together to figure out fun ways to keep craft beer fresh for years. Oskar Blues uses stainless steel growlers in the tasting rooms, but the brewery is always looking for other options that are glassless. The OB crew got together with the innovation folks at Ball and they presented their 720 can as a possible idea for tasting rooms to use as a "to go" option. It

A Clean & Safe Garage As creatures of habit, rudimentary tasks often become second nature. Like when you pull into the driveway and without really thinking, reach up and hit the garage door remote, pull in, and hit it again. Now satisfied that the to-do list is pretty much completed, you exit the chariot and retreat into the house with confidence that all left behind in the garage is safe and sound. Right? Well, maybe.

Now, I may be exaggerating just a little, but something struck a chord with me when I heard about the most recent Oakland, California fire which destroyed an entire commercial warehouse, taking 33 lives. This immediately reminded me of the definition of "warehouse."

"A building or part of one, for the storage of goods, merchandise, etc."

them. Even wood or large amounts of paper products. That's what garden sheds are for. Second, and just as important, clear the entire floor area. You should be able to move in and around parked vehicles easily at all times. Not only is it important to be able to get out in case of an emergency, but it's just as important for our beloved First Responders to have a clear and safe path to get in.

Sound familiar? But, if you're like most of us garage transients, our garages have a tendency to become the dumping grounds or, at best, staging areas for items that we had every intention of storing nicely away, neat and organized so that it can easily be found when needed again, right? Sounds good. But, we all know better.

The authorities will be investigating that fire for months to come. But, what I got out of the preliminary report was that the building or "parts of the building" had been used improperly to store unsafe, highly combustible/flammable materials and that the better part of the building was disorganized and misused, causing the path in, around, and, most importantly, out of the building, difficult, if not impossible to navigate in the event of an emergency.

Now, that's safety smart on many levels. Sounds like a perfect excuse for a "Garage Sale"

I'm sure you already see my point. Try leaving the cars out in the drive for a couple days next weekend and get re-acquainted with the content packed and piled throughout the garage. First, give serious consideration to properly removing and relocating all your accelerants like gasoline, aerosols, oils, paints, and cleaners; and the equipment that use

Senior Lifestyles Make the Most of Your Medical Appointments For many of us, a second pair of ears can be a helpful addition on medical appointments, especially if you're not feeling well or dealing with a stressful situation. Here are some of the benefits of having someone with you: You are more likely to attend the appointment if someone is going with you.

When you receive information, your friend can help you remember what was discussed during the appointment or can take notes. When you need to discuss something challenging with your doctor, it helps to have an ally in the room. Your friend can help you to complete recommended follow ups including additional appointments and testing. Some of us are lucky enough to have loved ones or friends to come along. For those who do not, Surrey's Care Managers offer support and advocacy for medical appointments as well as a wide scope of other coordination services. Contact 484-321-6105 for more information about Care Management.

Your friend can build a relationship with your doctor if they need to advocate for you in the future. A fresh perspective may help you by thinking of different questions to ask or considerations you should have about your situation.

Sports & Misuse of Prescription Drugs Understanding Non-medical /Misuse of Prescription Medications and Addiction

What is Addiction? Addiction is a disease characterized by compulsive drug seeking behavior regardless of the consequences. As the illness progresses, an addicted person needs more of the drug, the illness becomes harder to treat, and the risk of overdose increases. Misusing medication can lead to serious consequences including rapid addiction, other substance use, criminal activity, and even death. People who misuse pain killers might not understand how these factors interact and put them at risk for serious negative consequences. Additionally, mixing prescription opioids with alcohol or other drugs is the leading cause of overdose death in Delaware County.

Prescription Medications The class of prescription drugs most commonly prescribed for pain is opioids, such as Vicodin, Percocet, Codeine, Demerol or Oxycontin. Under a doctor's orders, these medications can be very helpful. But if used improperly, they can be dangerous. Most individuals who misuse prescription medications, particularly teens, believe these substances are safer than illegal drugs because they are prescribed by a doctor. Doctors take into account things like the patient's age, weight, and medical history; the drug's form, dose, and possible side effects; and the potential for addiction, when prescribing medications. 70% of people 12 and older who abuse prescription drugs get them from family and friends, and 60% of teens who have abused prescription pain killers have done so before the age of 15.

It is important for parents/guardians to be aware of what substances your student athlete may be exposed to or using during the season. What are the signs and symptoms you should look for? Signs of use

• Anxiety/Irritability • Insomnia • Long periods of sleep • Loss of appetite or Nausea • Watery eyes • Chills • Depression • Disorientation • Pinpoint pupils

• Forgetfulness • Increased sensitivity • Change in appearance • Receiving lower grades • Increased absence

Take Action! What can you do if your athlete is prescribed medication? 1. Know - Know what medications your athlete is using and the signs of use, dependency, and overdose. 2. Monitor - The adult in the household should maintain possession of the medication and closely monitor the dosage and refills. Although most youth are capable of self-administering over-the-counter pain killers, prescription opiates should be closely supervised by an adult. Set clear rules with your medications! Never share, take more than prescribed, or mix with other drugs. 3. Talk - Discuss the dangers of prescription medications with your athlete. Emphasize that just because they are prescribed by a doctor, it does not make them safe! 4. Lock Your Meds - Keep all prescription medications locked up to keep your family and friends safe! When the prescription is no longer needed, dispose of the unused medication at any of the Montgomery County Drop Box locations. (visit www.montcopa.org/index.aspx?NID=1766 for locations.)

Signs of overdose*

• May not awaken when aroused • Cold, clammy skin • Blue lips, face, hands • Struggle for breath Signs of dependency • Elevated body • Change in personality temperature • Social withdrawal • Vomiting • Change in daily habits • Behaving • Neglect responsibilities irrationally/confused

Keeping Our Student Athletes Safe CAST educates parents about the need to lock their medications, and raffles off a free medicine lock box. In addition, CAST educates families about the need to safely dispose of unused or expired medicine by taking it to one of the prescription drop boxes located at the police stations in Upper Merion, Bridgeport, and West

Conshohocken. CAST partners with State Representative Tim Briggs to host prescription drug drop-off events in conjunction with his popular document shredding events. For more information about CAST, visit www.umacast.org, and follow CAST on Twitter @CASTMobilizer.

The Upper Merion Area Community Alliance for a Safer Tomorrow (CAST) is a coalition of individuals from all sectors of the community working to create a healthy, safe, drug-free community for youth. Recognizing that student athletes may take prescription opioids for their sports injuries, CAST partnered with the Upper Merion Area High School Athletics Department to educate athletes and their families about the dangers of prescription drug abuse, the addictive nature of prescription painkillers, and the connection between opioids and the current heroin epidemic. At each pre-season parent meeting, families are given information about prescription opioids and are asked to share the information with their student athletes. Both the athlete and parents are asked to sign the policy sheet indicating that they have read and discussed the information on prescription drug abuse. The policy helps parents initiate important conversations with their teens, prepares them for conversations with their healthcare providers, and helps them know what to expect in the event of a sports injury. CAST also provided each high school classroom with a poster about prescription drug abuse. In order to help strengthen and educate families, CAST holds monthly parent seminars.

These lovely plants available in our Plant Shop for beautifying home gardens. The plant shop will open on Thursday, April 13, and will be open daily from 9am - 4pm through September. Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens is located at 631 Berwyn Baptist Road in Devon, PA. We are open 365 days a year from 8am to sunset.

Sometimes the plant may grow too tall and flop over. In order to prevent this, it is recommended that you cut back the stems about a 1/3 after its done blooming.

Hubricht's Bluestar (Amsonia hubrichtii)

2017 Obedient Plant (Physostegia virginiana)

2017 Rose Mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos)

This beautiful clump forming, herbaceous perennial has many noteworthy characteristics making it an excellent choice as a green ribbon native plant. It is a member of the Dogbane plant family or Apocynaceae. One trait expressed by members of this family is a milky/latex sap. Due to this, A. hubrichtii is not preferred by deer. It is known for its elegant powdery blue star shaped flowers which grow in clusters at the ends of the stems. These delicate flowers make an appearance in late spring around April and last until the end of May sometimes even longer. The foliage is another notable characteristic. These thin, filamentous leaves grow along the stem in an alternate fashion. They are a beautiful green during the growing season and turn to a stunning yellow during the fall. This foliage can bring nice texture and color to any garden.

Native to south-central United States Amsonia hubrichtii can grow to about 3 feet tall and spreads 2-3 feet at maturity. This plant is ideal for many different garden situations and is very low maintenance. It performs best in well drained, rich soil but can tolerate a wide range of conditions. A. hubrichtii produces the best fall color in full sun however blooms may persist longer if given some afternoon shade. It is also notable that Amsonia is

the winter to protect the roots from frost. Also it is recommended to prune in the early spring for a bushier growth form. Japanese beetles have been known to cause damage to the foliage of this plant if left unmanaged.

The common rose mallow or swamp mallow is an upright shrub-like herbaceous perennial that is commonly found in moist areas such as marshes or lake shores. H. moscheutos is a member of the Mallow family, Malvaceae. This plant is unique because you can bring those showy tropical looking hibiscus flowers to the garden. The flowers are typically a large, beautiful, funnel shape with five separate petals. Interestingly the stamens and stigma are fused into one structure called a column. Petals are normally white, pink or red with or some variation in between. H. moscheutos flowers are normally darker towards the middle and can become quite large and showy reaching anywhere from 8 to 10 inches. Though an individual flower may only last a short period of time, the plant itself continues to bloom through late summer into fall. The rose mallow can bring quite the accent to any garden and it is recommended to plant a group of 3 or more for a visually appealing effect.

The obedient plant or false dragonhead is a very fun plant that has some very unique qualities. First of all, the obedient plant's common name comes from the flowers' unique pliable nature. The flower heads can be pushed along the axis of the stem and will remain wherever they are moved. This makes the plant very useful for cut flowers or flower arrangements. This plant is a rhizomatous perennial that is a member of the mint family, Lamiaceae. A common characteristic of this family is a square stem. The flowers a pale lilac with a tubular shape and snapdragon appearance that grow on terminal spikes. The flower spikes bloom from the bottom to top from late June to September. P. virginiana has sharply toothed, lanceolate leaves arranged in an opposite manner. The square stems can reach up to 4 feet but may fall over if the soils are too rich or it is not receiving enough sun. Beware this plant can spread rather aggressively either by seed or rhizomatously with stolons. To prevent this a gardener can pull up the undesired shallow roots to keep the plant tamed. Obedient plant lives in a wide variety of habitats from open meadows to stream banks. It is native to much of North America from Quebec to Florida and even west to New Mexico. This plant is great because it can tolerate moist soils with poor drainage or soils on the drier end of the spectrum. The nectar of this plant is desirable to many species of butterflies and even attracts hummingbirds. Overall this is an excellent plant and can really give a show in the late summer, early fall especially if used in a rain garden.

This plant is native to the eastern and southern parts of North America and can be grown in hardiness zones 5-10. The rose mallow can grow rather tall, reaching anywhere from 5 to 7 feet in a single growing season. Since it is capable of growing so much it may need to be staked for support. The optimal growth conditions for H. moscheutos are full sun and moist soils rich in organic matter but, it can tolerate lower quality soils even those containing salt. It will grow very well in these conditions as long as the soil is not allowed to dry out. If this plant is being grown in colder regions, one should consider mulch during

Jenkins Arboretum - Preserving Plant Genetics Preserving Plant Genetics A Collaborative Effort As the Arboretum's plant collections continue to mature and space becomes more limited, it is important that we now narrow our focus. For rhododendrons and evergreen azaleas, an effort is made to collect only the very best hybrids or collections from particular hybridizers. Specifically, these include the large leafed rhododendrons created by John Doppel and the evergreen azaleas created by Joe Klimavicz. When it comes to native, deciduous azaleas though, it isn't quite as straightforward. One of the greatest benefits of participating in American Public Gardens Association's Plant Collections Network (PCN) is that it encourages you to think strategically about your curatorial practices, and collaborate with other like-minded organizations to ensure that plant genetics are being preserved. As we begin to focus on genetics, the provenance, or location from which the seed used to grow the plants was collected, becomes very important. Understanding this, we have had two exciting opportunities to add large numbers of known-provenance deciduous native azaleas to our collection. The first was through a very generous gift of nearly 100 known-provenance native azaleas from our friends at Mt. Cuba Center. In total, there were 9 different species and 17 different accessions. These included some pretty exciting specimens such as a shinyleaved selection of R. arborescens (sweet azalea); a larger-than-normal flowering selection of R. colemanni (Red Hills azalea), a species only recently discovered; and the very late-blooming R. arborescens var. Georgiana which blooms in July alongside R.

prunifolium (plumleaf azalea). The donation also included 4 different accessions of flame azalea, R. austrinum which are now planted under the pine trees near the pond. With 17 seed-grown flame azaleas, it will be interesting to see the genetic variation which can lead to variations in growth form and even flower color. Yes, even though they are the same species, and even though flame azaleas are typically orange, some could end up being nearly yellow and some could end up being nearly red.

planting throughout the garden. Of course, ever thankful for the gifts we are given, we also shared several of these plants with Mt. Cuba. The gardens just keep getting better and better and we hope you will look for these new additions next spring.

Goal $20 million by 2020

The second opportunity came from a seed collecting trip to the Southeastern US by Executive Director, Harold Sweetman. Harold accompanied Tom Clark from Polly Hill Arboretum who was in search of the rare Pinkshell Azalea (R. vaseyi) for a research study. Of course, no good plantsman can venture into the woods in search of one thing and not end up with some others. Harold brought back 23 total accessions of 9 different species. The Arboretum's staff grew the plants on a light rack until they were ready to be pricked out and potted up. Now, there are hundreds of azaleas being grown on for

When the Waters Rise, Will You Know What to Do? Put Rainwater to Work for You Harvesting rainwater is a simple way to make your household green and help your gardens prosper. Using rainwater instead of the tap to water your gardens will cut your water bill. It also keeps water from running off of your property and carrying pollutants into our streams. The two most common ways to put rainwater to work for you are rain barrels and rain gardens:

Floods are one of the most common weather hazards in the United States. They can happen anywhere at any time of year.

What is a Flash Flood?

Densely populated areas have a higher risk for flash floods than rural areas.

Flash floods can occur within minutes or hours of a heavy rainfall, and waters can rise as high as 30 feet or more. Even small streams and creeks can flood rapidly and cause damage. Flash floods are usually caused by slow-moving thunderstorms. According to the National Weather Service, "Flash floods are short-term events occurring within six hours of the causative event (heavy rain, dam break, levee failure, rapid snowmelt and ice jams) and often within two hours of the start of highintensity rainfall." Flash floods can move homes and cars, uproot trees and destroy bridges. Because floods happen with little to no warning, residents in low-lying areas are particularly at risk. According to the American Red Cross, flash floods are the No. 1 weatherrelated killer in the U.S. Almost half of all flash flood fatalities are vehicle related, according to the National Weather Service. If you're driving and approach a water-covered

road, turn around. Just 6 inches of water can stall a vehicle, and 2 feet can float most cars, trucks and SUVs. Here are some other tips to stay high and dry: Know your proximity to rivers, streams and dams During heavy rain, avoid underpasses, underground parking garages and basements Avoid hiking or camping if thunderstorms are predicted

A rain barrel collects water from your roof and stores it for future use. You can connect a hose to the barrel or use it to fill watering cans. Rain barrels are available commercially at home improvement stores or you can build a do-it-yourself rain barrel at little cost; see www.diynetwork.com/howto/how-to-create-a-rain-barrel for simple instructions. Most barrels hold 55 gallons of water and will fill quickly during a storm. Make sure to include an

overflow pipe to transport excess water away from your house. Also, a screen or filter on top is essential to prevent mosquitoes.

A rain garden is a collection of water-loving plants in a slight depression in the ground. Running a downspout towards a sunken garden will capture rainwater and allow it to slowly sink into the ground over the next day. Rain gardens should be located at least 10 feet away from your foundation. Their size varies based on how much roof area is draining to the garden. Resources on building your rain garden can be found many places online, including www.raingardensforthebays.org and www.stormwaterpa.org/ raingarden. Pick the right spot on your property, create a design using your favorite plants, and start using rainwater to beautify your yard. This rain barrel at the Media Community Center was painted to provide a splash of color. Rain barrels are available in many colors and can be painted to match any home.

Develop an evacuation plan for your family Don't walk in water above your ankles; you can be swept off your feet in as little as 6 inches of rushing water Turn off the electricity and other utilities During heavy rain, Township storm sewers can become blocked with debris causing flooding in the street. In preparation of any rain event, Township crews do attempt to clean storm inlets to make sure they are able to collect water from the street. If you notice debris on top of a storm inlet before or after a storm, contact the Township immediately. If your roadway becomes flooded during a storm, call 911 immediately so emergency personnel can respond to close the road to traffic.

Dog Training - Praising Your Dog Why is it so hard for your dog to understand praise including a cue? You will often see directions on the internet with phrases such as, "Every time his rump hits the floor, tell him 'Good sit!'" This is meant to help your dog pair their current act with the word "sit."

As humans, we are able to understand the various ways words can be used. We understand that one word can have many meanings in various situations and that different words can be used to mean the same thing. Unfortunately, your dog is not so lucky when it comes to verbal communication. Dogs are phenomenal at exhibiting and reading body language, but they have a vocabulary of approximately 12-20 vocalizations (depending on which study you read). This number range is way less than the thousands of words humans have adapted to understanding, and that doesn't even include tone, context, etc. Once you know and accept this idea, it becomes a little more understandable when your trainer tells you that "down" can only mean one thing and that "put your belly on the floor" can't also mean "don't jump." Other than overusing words and leading to misunderstandings, there is one other instance where people misuse words with their dogs, and this is a big one "sit" followed by "good sit" or some other variation of using a command word in praise. Why is this such a bad idea? Well, you are going to be spending quite a bit of time teaching your dog a few key words, such as sit, down, stay, etc., and pairing them with specific behaviors. Each time you use a word differently, you are adding a little confusion to the mix and potentially making it harder for your dog to learn the true meanings of the behaviors. We generally refer to this as the power or value of the cue. You want the cue to be very strong and for your dog to understand its meaning clearly.

Here is why that doesn't work: your dog does not understand grammar. Simply stated, you understand that "sit" can be both a verb and noun, as in "sit down" and "the act of sitting." Your dog does not. For your dog, "sit" is technically a discriminative sound or stimulus. A good example of a discriminative stimulus that may be easier to understand is the sound of a whistle in sporting events. The whistle tells you to start, whether that means dive off of the block in swimming, or to stop due to a penalty, as seen in football. The whistle means only one thing in each sport and is never repeated right after the start or stop to tell the players they did a good job. This is how it feels to your dog. The sound "sit" means that they are likely to get a reward if they put their bum on the floor. Once their bum is down, repeating the cue with the praise does not tell your dog that they did a good job sitting. That would mean that they understand "good" is being used to describe the act of sitting. You're essentially wasting the power of the word "sit" by repeating it with the praise. So what does this mean for praise? You might have come to the conclusion that words matter for your dog. This is absolutely true! So what about the power of your chosen praise word? Well, you give a word power through consistency and clarity by using each word for only one meaning.

associate it with good feeling and drive them to work for the chosen praise word. To be extremely clear and consistent you can choose a unique word or sound and pair it exclusively with a food reward to help build a stronger drive for reinforcement. This is one reason why many trainers recommend clickers for training. The clicker is used as a primary reinforcer since it is always paired with food. Even if you accidentally click, you still treat to ensure the clicker is highly reinforcing. Secondary reinforcers, like praise, are also used once a dog has a good history of reward and is preforming extremely well so that you can fade out the clicker or primary reinforcer. I, for one, tell my dogs they are good and beautiful and the best dogs ever all the time, which is why I specifically do not use the word "good" in training. My primary reinforcer is "yes." Rarely would I say "yes" to a dog in regular every day interactions. I use "rockstar" as my secondary reinforcer, letting my dog know they are on the right track or that a treat will be coming imminently (it's a great way to utilize praise for performance dogs since you are not allowed to treat them during competition). Hopefully now you understand that words have power and meaning for your dog, just maybe not the meaning you expected. By communicating clearly and consistently with your dog, you can build a stronger relationship and see better training results.

A lot of people choose the word "good." This is a completely fine word to use. However, now that you know words have power, you may notice yourself using "good" to mean multiple things. "Good" might mean you did a good job and are about to get a treat, or it might mean that they are generally a good dog. Either way, it is hopefully paired with a good reward which can help the pup
