Training horses with a clicker produces an equine partner eager to learn and find the right answer--a horse who often ends up being more interested in figuring something out than getting the reward, whether it's a treat, scratch, belly or back rub. Horses get hooked on learning and enjoy being a playmate instead of a robot.
Here's an example of some behaviors my horse learned via horse clicker training, shaped in gradual steps. For more examples, visit the Horse Clicker Video page here:
