| Thanks for the great site. I bought a book on it at Petsmart and it wasn't all that useful. Linus is doing great with regular training (3 new tricks in the past week...sit took us a while) but I think he will respond really well to the clicker!

I've posted about this before - first "clicker training" is NOT about the clicker is about a training method called "operant conditioning" - if the clicker isn't working for you all you need to do is find something else to use as a marker. In Seaworld, the use a whistle. With noise sensitive rescue dogs, I use a "kiss." Second - there are now many types of clickers on the market that modulate the sound from the clicker so you can work to desensitize your animals to the sound. Once the associate the clicker with food and fun, it becomes a positive experience for them. ( I also clicker train my Macaw). | |

| Conditioning Yes, I remember all this from my Psychology 101 class. Pavlovs "classical condtioning" in my book, brings back some memories. Last edited by vms1177; 07-13-2005 at 05:56 PM. |
