Training with Positives:The Clicker Way

What is clicker Training?

Clicker training uses a “Yes Answer” signal to tell your horse when he has done something right. It pairs that “Yes Answer” with a reward, so he is encouraged to repeat that good behavior again. Clicker training is a Positive Training method that creates happy, enthusiastic, what-can-I-do-for-you-horses.

Horses are intelligent animals. They are eager to learn and eager to please. This web site will show you how to use their intelligence to create the horse of your dreams.

To create this learning magic we use a small plastic clicker. The clicker makes a distinctive sound when you click it. It tells your horse “Yes, that is what I want you to do.” and it promises him a reward for a job well done. The clicker acts like the click of a camera, marking the exact moment he has done what you like.
