Hi Janet- Actually what you describe has nothing to do with clicker training, which is far more effective than verbal praise or pressure/release. Rather than repeat what others have posted, I'll give you the link to Alexandra Kurland's website so you can cease to be "baffled." Check it out. I waited over a year to start clicking, and I'm sorry for the time I missed. www.theclickercenter.com Brigid M Wasson San Francisco Bay Area, CA <A HREF="http://ourfjords.freeservers.com/fjord1/Our_Fjordsx.html">Our </A><A HREF="http://ourfjords.freeservers.com/fjord1/Our_Fjordsx.html">Fjords</A> <A HREF="http://www.ourfjords.freeservers.com/fw/Fjordings_Wesx.html">Fjordings West</A> / )__~ /L /L
