What is an EASY example of an extinction burst using a dog?

Question

????????????

Answer 1

Lets say that your dog is conditioned that when you work in the front yard, he barks and you come to let him out in the front yard with him.

So this weekend, you don't come back to let him out. He starts to bark more frantically - a burst of the action that causes you to come get him. Evenutally he gives up and stops barking.

Of course if you have a rat terrier like I do, the darned thing barks all night!! ha ha Kidding. :)
