With every click, the human highlights the desired dog behaviour, quickly and precisely. The click announces the subsequent reward, and the dog's behaviour is positively reinforced. Good trainers use clicker training as a fundamental technique in correcting problematic behaviour such as fear or aggression. Based on behavioural and neurological research, effective and animal-friendly clicker training has evolved to the point of genuinely facilitating communication between human and dog. In addition to basic knowledge regarding clicker training, this book puts great emphasis on how to communicate clearly with dogs. Easy-to-follow exercises and practical tips for correcting undesired behaviour enable the reader to make best use of the clicker marker signal. The author also demonstrates how cooperation, communication and emotional change can each play an important part in modifying your dog's behaviour. By working in a self-reliant way, the dog learns to interact consciously with his environment.
