Clicker training manual

Clicker training is a positive reinforcement method used to teach animals new behaviors. It involves using a clicker, a small device that makes a sound, to mark desired behaviors immediately as they occur. When the animal performs the behavior, the trainer clicks the clicker and then rewards the animal with a treat or praise. This helps the animal associate the behavior with a reward. Over time, the trainer gradually adds cues and commands, reinforcing learning. Clicker training is effective for various animals, including pets and working animals, fostering a strong bond between the trainer and the animal.
