PAWS Chicago Ad 032712 1 3/30/12 1:21 PM Agility training is a stimulating form of exercise that challenges dogs to achieve a specific task. CLICKER TRAINING All dogs should start with a basic training or manners class. Clicker training is a method based on behavioral psychology that relies on marking desirable behavior with a “click” and then rewarding it. The “click” tells the dog exactly when he is doing the right thing, so it can speed up communication. This method allows the dog to become an active part of the training program CLICK CLICK making it more fun and exciting. At PAWS Chicago, clicker training may have already been started for you. Clicker training is taught to our Level 2 and 3 GOOD DOG MOVE! volunteers and monthly workshops are conducted to track the progress. Participating volunteers are assigned a dog to train with the goals of increasing the dog’s adoptability by teaching good Tips to Stimulate manners and providing mental stimulation. Behaviors are taught by capturing (marking behaviors that Your Active, the dog does naturally), targeting (teaching the dog to touch a target with his nose or paw, then moving the target to create the desired behavior), or shaping (marking increments of the final Energetic Dog behaviors and gradually raising the criteria to reach the end goal). Once the dog can consistently offer the desired behavior, it is “put By Joan Harris on cue” or given a name. The clicker can then be phased out and the behavior can be variably reinforced. Clicker training is a fun and exciting way to teach dogs more Clicker training is a method based complicated tasks and tricks. So with a little bit of patience, your dog could learn to “take a bow,” “high five,” “roll over” or “sit on behavioral psychology that relies on pretty.” With some more work (and a motivated dog), you could marking desirable behavior with teach your dog to put away his toys, close doors or even get your beer from the refrigerator! a “click” and then rewarding it. continued on page 28
