WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF DOG CLICKER TRAINING

 


This method is a form of operational training, which uses a clicking sound to control the dog’s behavior and train it. In simpler terms, clicker training requires the owner to carry a plastic clicking toy with them and every time the dog does the right thing the clicker is clicked and a treat is delivered to the good boy/girl.

If you do not want to carry a clicker with you, you can always use verbal cues and sounds to inform your dog of its desirable behavior. This technique is mostly used by dog trainers but can be applied to training any domesticated animal.

Dogs learn well by association and clicker training is a good way of associating the right behavior with the click. Here are a few reasons why clicker training might be the right method for you.

If you’re working on potty training your dog, then bell training can be a real lifesaver. Teaching a puppy or adult dog to ring a “potty bell,” is relatively simple and very convenient. In teaching your dog to ring a potty bell to let you know when he/she needs to go outside, you can eliminate accidents. Develops your Dog's "Hidden Intelligence" To eliminate bad behavior and Create the obedient, well-behaved pet of your dreams. CLICK HERE! Dog bells for potty training can be made at home using simple craft store supplies, or even an old jingle bell from your holiday decorations.

THE PROS AND CONS OF INVISIBLE FENCES FOR DOGS

Image
Fencing prevents a dog from becoming a neighborhood nuisance, but there are other issues at hand. Keeping a dog appropriately confined keeps him safe by preventing mishaps associated with free roaming.

HOW TO TRAIN A DOG WHO DOESN’T LIKE HIS FOOD/TREATS

Image
I like to use food to train dogs whenever we can for many reasons. First, food is what’s known as a primary reinforcer. That’s a fancy way of saying “the dog needs it to survive.” Think about it, dogs (or us, for that matter) can’t live without food. So it’s pretty important to a dog. Second, food is usually a really nice reward for a dog. It tastes good. It smells good. They like it and will work hard to earn another tasty tidbit.

He refuses chicken. Won’t take a hot dog. Won’t even consider a dog treat. Which limits my options for using food as a reinforcer. I mean, if he doesn’t like it, it’s not a reinforcer. Period. I’ve found that he does like cheese. It’s relatively cheap when bought in the econo-saver blocks and it lasts over a week in the refrigerator. It’s easy for me to handle — not
