Synopsis

This book clearly outlines what is involved with clicker training horses. Positive reinforcement is explained with photographs and further illustrated with many short, free YouTube video clips. It contains eight detailed Training Plan outlines ready for use to set up education programs for individual horses. Techniques such as ‘free-shaping’ are clearly described without delving into scientific terminology. Positive reinforcement training is rapidly challenging many traditional ideas about horse training. This book shows how equine clicker training opens a host of new possibilities by letting a horse know when he is are right, rather than telling him when he is wrong. It shows how clicker training adds a new dimension to horsemanship. The handler and the horse learn the new clicker training language together. Clicker training does not mean you have to click and treat every task forever. The book explains how it is a technique you can use to communicate more accurately what you would like the horse to learn. It encourages you to turn general Training Plans into Individual Education Programs custom-made to exactly suit the horse you are working with.
