to Success: Clicker Training for Beginners |

Clicker
training is a form of operant conditioning. It’s a way to train your pets without
punishments or harsh corrections. It’s building a path
of clear communication between yourself and your pet. It
builds
trust, increases confidence, and results in a happy, eager-to-please
pet who loves being with their person. MORE |
