Clicker Training Review
Clicker Training-4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer is a finally in English. It is a 216 page eBook written by Norwegian dog trainers Morton Egtvedt and his wife Cecile Koeste. they have been teaching Clicker Training Method for the last 13 years, after first studying with the founder of Clicker Training, Karen Pryor. You can tell their Clicker Training methods must really work, because Morton and Cecile now have 21 academies teaching Clicker Training throughout Scandinavia.
What I like about this Clicker Training-4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer is the emphasis on positive training techniques. Morton previously taught dog training using the correction method, and after discovering Clicker Training, he swears he will never go back. Positive training not only works well, but it will create a bond between the trainer and his dog that makes the training fun for both the owner and his pet. Clicker Training, like any good positive reinforcement program, is based on the trainer learning to better understand what the dog is thinking.

Morton and Celeste claim that any dog can be trained if the trainer first understands the 4 Important Secrets they have isolated for making dog training effective. You’ll have to read their book beofre you get the 4 secrets. Likewise, they have listed the 5 training syndromes- according to Morton 99% of all dog trainers have fallen into at least one of these. No training will have good reliable results without the trainer knowing what he is doing. It requires a combination of good training techniques and good application of those techniques by the dog trainer to get the most out of the training. Reading Clicker Training-4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer makes training seem logical and easy to do, using well written and easy to understand text and good photos to illustrate the various behaviors included in the course. Using the “clicker” to “mark” the dogs good behaviors once performed, your dog will learn to think for himself, reasoning out the expected behavior wanted by you, and he’ll start having more and more fun with the training. You’ll enjoy teaching the step-by-step lessons as you watch your dog learn the 30 different behaviors that are taught in Clicker Training-4 Secrets to Becoming a Supertrainer.
The training in Clicker Training takes you from the very earliest training, starting with your puppy, and continues right on through advanced training-tricks that you and your dog can learn to show off to friends and jealous neighbor dogs. Because Clicker Training teaches the trainer, so you can teach the dog, you will learn more than one technique for training a particular behavior. Dogs, being of all different types and personalities respond differently to different methods of training. Therefore, Morton and Cecile have written their book including a variety of ways to teach desired behaviors,to best reach your dog’s particular learning style. This is good, because you will not just be teaching your dog “what to do”, you’ll also know why the training you are using actually works. I find that when I understand something on the theoretical level, it makes it more easy for me to be consistent in my training techniques-because in my mind I know that this is the best way to do something, so I don’t play around with other less effective styles, thereby wasting time and confusing my dogs.
