How Dogs Learn: Intro to Clicker Training
Class Description:
In this fun class, you will be introduced to the concept of clicker training with your dog. Based on solid science, clicker training relies on a learning theory called “operant conditioning”. For decades, it is the method that has been used to train marine mammals as well as zoo animals to perform complex behaviors. During the class, we’ll explore the theory of operant conditioning and how you can use it to train your dog. Your dog will “learn how to learn” and you will learn how to teach your dog complex tricks and more.
