This video is on how to start training a puppy with a clicker. It goes over how to charge the clicker, or in other words build meaning to the clicker. I also mention what to do and what not to do when getting started. Please comment on this video to let me know if you found the added texts and transitions beneficial to learning or if you prefer the style of other videos of mine where it’s only visual. I am dyslexic so for me the text is useless, but I am trying to learn to teach others in a way that they learn best. Do you learn better when the key points are highlighted in writing?

Here are the videos that I mention in this video:

Happy Training! - Emily Larlham (AKA Kikopup)

About the author: Emily Larlham runs the dog training business Dogmantics Dog Training in San Diego, California. She is known around the world for her popular Youtube Channel ‘Kikopup’ where she has posted over 350 free in-depth dog training tutorials. She believes that by putting out free training tutorials that don’t involve any forms of physical or psychological intimidation, it will not only effect how people treat animals but also how people treat other human beings. Emily created the term ‘Progressive Reinforcement Training’ and a training manifesto to describe this way of training in detail. Emily began her training career as an animal care-giver in a shelter about 15 years ago where she met her dog training mentor Kyle Rayon. After meeting Kyle, Emily quit her job and became an apprentice. After many years of study, learning from both human and thousands of canine mentors, she began her own business. She combines her artistic background and training skills to invent creative, fast and reliable ways to solve problem behaviors as well as train complex behaviors and tricks. She has been invited to conduct seminars on her techniques for training dogs without intimidation in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. She has also spoken at conferences such as the PPG Summit, Clicker Expo, Clicker Expo Europe, APDT Australia and the Art and Science of Animal Training Conference.
