School of Dogs’ methods are based on positive reinforcement. We teach new tricks and behaviors using a tool called a clicker. The clicker marks the desired behavior and promises the dog a reward, equivalent to a paycheck. By itself the sound of the clicker is just a neutral click without value. Paired with treats the clicker becomes a very valuable and efficient tool in the process of training. Quickly your dog will be able to determine which behaviors are rewarded and therefore worth continuing.
With clicker training you have a great chance of becoming a respecting and trusting team. |
