"Any training can be done poorly and cause problems … it is not R+ that is causing the problem. It is the lack of understanding of how to properly apply the science."
-Shawna Karrasch
In this episode, Helena is joined by the equine clicker OG, Shawna Karrasch, to discuss the recent trend of horse training experts on social media (often with thousands of followers), who scoff at positive reinforcement (aka clicker) training.
It is clear that these particular experts are missing at least one of the three KEY elements required for success with R+, and it’s the missing element, or elements, that is the source of their trouble. If you struggle with clicker training, or if you have dabbled in it with poor results, this episode may change your perspective (and help create a more cooperative horse). Listen in!
