Let's suppose I trained my dog to touch a button and win a prize in random sequences.

Now I want to make this behavior become extinct.

What is the fastest way:

1. Not allow my dog to see the button for a time, after that the dog will see the button but not react.
2. Allow him to touch the button indefinitely until my dog stops.
