There are three methods of using clickers to train dogs

Induction method

The induction method is faster but inaccurate in training, and often confuses the dog. method. It uses pet snacks to induce the dog to become interested in training and perform training actions. As long as the dog does it correctly, the clicker is pressed immediately, and then the dog is given snacks.

Capture method

is more natural and accurate, but requires longer initial training time. This method does not require treats to induce dog training, nor does it require any gestures or vocal reminders. Just observe the dog's actions or so-called actions, and as long as the dog complies with the training action or behavior, immediately press the remote control and reward the dog with snacks.

Shaping method

The shaping method is to decompose the actions or behaviors you want to train the dog into many similar training steps, and then connect these actions to train the dog to achieve the desired actions or behaviors. The shaping method does not require any reminders of keeping peace or pet snacks. As long as the owner carefully observes the dog's movements or behaviors when training the dog, as long as the dog expects any actions or behavioral reactions from the owner from the beginning, it will Immediately press the clicker before giving the dog the treat. It can also be understood as breaking down the actions or behaviors expected by the person being trained into steps. Each step must be trained using the capture method until the action or behavior expected by the owner is achieved.
