What I've learned So Far

1.) What you've learned since you started your senior project?

I have learned that when you train a dog its it good start at a early age and use good training techniques such as a clicker.


2.) Puppies learn faster when they are younger, some experts say you should start training as soon as 3 weeks of age. When training a dog you never use negative reinforcement, you  use  positive techniques such as treats or a clicker. A clicker is used to encourage the dogs without using physical contact.



This is the clicker I use to train my dog.
