Getting Started:<br>Clicker Training for Dogs<br>- By Karen Pryor

“Karen Pryor's clicker training is the most compelling demonstration of dog training that I have ever seen. No dog should go without this information.”
—Nicholas Dodman, D.V.M., The Dog Who Loved Too Much

Through several editions, and a name change to Getting Started: Clicker Training for Dogs, this classic has served up just the right portion of science and practical tips for anyone to understand why clicker training works so well, and the first steps to building a new system of communication and deeper bond with their dog.

Now, this powerful little book has become more helpful than ever in a new edition packed with step-by-step photographs of dogs and their handlers, clearly showing each stage of:

Shaping a behavior
Choosing and delivering a reward
Raising criteria
Target training
Timing the click
How to progress in small steps
Clicker training foundation behaviors, including Sit, Down, and Come when Called
Clicker training walking on a loose leash
Teaching a dog to be clicker savvy with the classic game “101 Things to do with a Box”
Training alone, with a partner, and in a group
Keeping training fun for you and your dog

Throughout, the easy-to-read text explains the science of behavior and learning that makes clicker training so effective, including:

Why every interaction with your dog is a training opportunity
Why mistakes are best ignored
Why punishment doesn't work
Why your dog will understand the language of the click better than anything else

An all-new chapter on where to find more information and connect with other clicker trainers completes this invaluable new edition, along with Frequently Asked Questions and Clicker Tips.
