Linn's blog on animal behaviour and training

I am enthusiastic in-my-spare-time positive reinforcement trainer (in my non-spare time I work with text, layout and illustration www.linnahlbom.com). I am also fascinated by animal behaviour in general and aim to collect some of my thoughts and findings here. The topics will range from wild animal behaviour to how to teach your dog things. Enjoy! Videos of my own training can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/user/wyvern10?gl=GB&hl=en-GB

Today I found these new great everyday-manners-exercises that I want to try

... all from Karen Pryor Clickertraining:

"Teaching You Puppy Impulse Control"
http://www.clickertraining.com/node/3263

"Dogs Like Kids They Feel Safe With"
http://www.clickertraining.com/node/3262

And then I also read:

"Tips for Preventing Dog Bites"
http://www.clickertraining.com/node/3261

... that had this incredibly important piece of advice:
"Train the dog — Take your dog to obedience classes where positive reinforcement is used. Never pin, shake, choke, hold the dog down, or roll the dog over to teach it a lesson. Dogs treated this way are likely to turn their aggression on weaker family members."
