There are provided a non-punitive, positive-reinforcement based automatically rewarding training device (10) and a method for training an animal or patient to reduce exhibition of an undesired behavior in a caretaker's absence. The training device (10) delivers rewards (15) automatically at an interval of time, in response to a detected desired behavior and/or in response to a reduction or absence of a undesired behavior. The animal's general behavior is monitored with behavior detectors (26, 60) and one or more desired and/or undesired behaviors are targeted. An interval of time between the delivery of consecutive rewards (15) may be modulated as a function of the targeted behaviors that are detected.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de dressage (10) non punitif qui récompense automatiquement sur la base du principe du renforcement positif et un procédé destinés à dresser un animal ou un patient de façon à réduire la manifestation d'un comportement indésirable en l'absence du propriétaire. Le dispositif de dressage (10) distribue automatiquement des récompenses (15) dans un intervalle de temps donné en réponse à un comportement désiré détecté et/ou en réponse à une baisse de fréquence ou en l'absence d'un comportement indésirable. Le comportement général de l'animal est suivi à l'aide de détecteurs de comportement (26, 60) qui cible un ou plusieurs comportements désirés et/ou indésirables. Un intervalle de temps compris entre les distributions de récompenses (15) consécutives peut être modulé en fonction des comportements ciblés qui sont détectés.
