I've had a off-list request for the site where I found Clicker
Training information. I'm going to reply on-list, because I'm really
impressed by the results of this training method that I've seen so
far, and it seems to work so well with greedy Fjords. IMO the best
sites I've looked at so far are:
1. The site run by Alexandra Kurland the woman who "wrote the
book" on clicker training horses. You can find it at:
www.crisny.org/users/kurlanda/index.html
2. A site titled, "An Animal Trainer's Introduction To Operant
and Classical Conditioning" which is maintained by
Stacy Braslau-Schneck. It has some very good theoretical
information. The URL is:
www.geocities.com/Athens/Academy/8636/Clicker.html
Both of these sites are on a clicker training Web Ring. You can get
to many other sites following the ring links.
We worked with the greedy Morgan yesterday. He started out much
slower than Tank, but once he figured out what behavior I wanted, he
got it down pat immediately and drained the oat bowl quickly.
