Clicker 101

“Clicker training” is the popular term for the training or teaching method based on what we know about how living organisms learn.

Clicker training is the process of training an animal using a conditioned reinforcer, which indicates to the animal ("marks") the precise behavior that was correct. It is easy to learn, and it is a powerful animal training tool. Clicker Training is using a distinct marker signal (the click) to precisely capture the behavior the trainer desires, and promises the animal that a worthwhile reward will follow. It is easy to learn, and it is a powerful animal training tool.

Research has shown that any creature—whether a dog, cat, dolphin, parrot, fish, horse, llama, or person—is more likely to learn and repeat actions that result in consequences it desires and enjoys.

Advantages Of Clicker Training

Clicker training is a fast, humane, and enriching way of integrating your pet into a new home and fixing or avoiding behavioral problems. Clicker training is being used successfully to teach all kinds of dog-related activities, including competition obedience, agility, tracking, , flyball, canine musical freestyle, field work, water, and draft. Clicker training is as positive as any other method of training, plus it incorporates an effective communication tool.

Reinforcements include: food (and different kinds of food), toys (and different kinds of toys), access to walks, access to the couch, access to the back yard, access to YOU. Treats can be confidently given even if the dog doesn't remain in the position because the behavior has been marked by a click. Treats are efficient, in that they get the dogs attention, quick & fast and if the treats are tiny (about the size of a pea), they are quickly devoured and the dog is ready to do something else to get paid.
