Specialty Classes - Clicker

CLICKER


The clicker class introduces handlers to the theories of operant conditioning that make clicker training a fun and rewarding experience for the dog. Emphasis is placed on how to elicit a behavior, when to click, how to assign a command to a behavior once it is established and how to move to a random schedule of reward. No attempt is made to teach any specific commands. Instead, each dog and handler team develop a behavior on their own then work towards putting it on command.
