Niet zozeer om wát de honden wordt aangeleerd, maar meer hoe

Clicker training is a wonderful tool for teaching
people to focus on the positive and have an
attitude of gratitude for every effort your horse
makes.

Hier nog een leuk clickerfilmpje maar nu met een schaap..

Leuk!! En het is hier niet zo ver vandaan, cascais!
Portugese clickertrainer... haha... had ik niet gedacht!

Wil.

Zeepaardje: embryo dat het verder verdomde.

leuk schaap!

Net in "wilde keuken" op tv (NTR)een programma over viskweek. In een aquarium zaten een aankal karpers. Binnen 30 minuten was bekend aan de vissen dat ze automatisch voer kregen als ze een handel die in het water hing een eind verschoven, dus bewust aanraakten.
Een nieuwe proef van "aldoende leren" a la de eerste wetenschappelijke uitgevoerde ratproef van Skinner die leert dat hij een handel moet bewegen om voer te krijgen, allover!
Voor de geinteresseerde, het zal wel op uitzending gemist komen.

Dit kreeg ik gisteren. Sorry, even geen tijd de boel te vertalen

Hi,

I just thought it would be fun to share a video of my Chincoteague
Pony, Chesapeake Boomerang, and I from this past weekend at the Horse
World Expo in Harrisburg, PA.

6 weeks ago I decided to begin training him to compete in Craig
Cameron's Extreme Cowboy Race. If you've never heard of it it's
basically a timed obstacle course which is also judged on agility,
horsemanship, communication, etc. I thought it looked like something
fun and new to try with my pony.

I started clicker training Boomerang almost 3 years ago when he first
came to live with me at the age of 5. But this new event for us
required that we learn a lot of new maneuvers - many western.....as
we ride and compete english. So in 6 weeks I clicker trained him to
do flying lead changes, sidepassing, western roll backs, and more. I
admit I had some pretty high expectations for him.

The only thing I couldn't "prepare" for and "train" was any sort of
reaction he might have to cheering crowds. Thankfully I prepared
myself with a back-up plan should I need to refocus him during the
event.

Here is a link to the video of our preliminary round:

If you notice right about 0:34 seconds Boomerang gets a little
frightened by the loud cheering. But I was able to refocus him by
asking him to "whoa" and then clicking and rewarding him for
remaining stationary. After that the crowd became a non-issue for him
- if only a slight distraction. I was glad that Craig Cameron
announced that Boomerang had been trained using clicker training. :)

Our preliminary round moved us into 2nd place out of 23 riders and
earned us a spot in the finals among the top 10 riders. We ended up
placing 6th in the finals.

Anyway, I was very proud of my brave pony, who was also the ONLY pony
to compete bitless! Just had to share. :)
