1. Clicker Training - The Truth About This Dog
Training Revolution!
I'm sure you'd love to have a well-trained dog, and want to know how to use
clicker training to make that easy for you, and this video will help!
Every dog-owner wants a well-behaved dog.
Even if you've tried to train your dog before and haven't been as successful as
you'd like, don't worry, it's not your fault (with all the incorrect and incomplete
information out there, it's understandable). It IS possible to train your dog as well
as you want, and this video gives you a great way to help you do that.
This method is simple and effective, and has been a real revolution in dog
training in recent times.
It was first used for marine mammals (maybe because dolphins naturally make
clicking sounds!), and was so effective that it was enthusiastically taken up by
dog trainers too.
One huge advantage of clicker training is that that, compared to almost any other
method, clicker training gives far quicker feedback on what the dog is doing.
Imagine your dog has just done something you like, but is a few yards away. It
takes time to run over there and pat the dog, or even to say "good boy".
With a clicker, the feedback to the dog is instant. This makes it much easier for
the dog to quickly learn exactly what you want it to do, which is, after all, how
training works!
Additionally, the clicker's sound doesn't change according to your mood! This is
important, as it makes training the dog very much easier and quicker, instead of
confusing it with giving the same command in different tones of voice as your
mood changes.
How you do it is you first buy a clicker. Most pet stores will have them, or some
children's toys produce suitable clicks.
Then with your dog, make a click and immediately give him a treat. Give him
praise at the same time.
Repeat that many times, so the dog associates the click with the reward. Once
this association has built up, the click can be used on its own most of the time,
without the treat.

2. The click takes on the meaning of "correct" for the dog, so every time you click, it
knows that it has done what you want at exactly that time. So that's how clicker
training works.
It can really help you train your dog more effectively and more rapidly. Give it a
try!
