    Thank you for these wonderful videos! I am beginning my research into clicker training and this really helps a lot. I love the idea of a reverse round pen! Many great ideas here and I hope to implement them. I did a bit of clicker training today with simple commands and also for the mounting block. I loved it! I feel she is much more relaxed with using the +R training. Thanks again🙏🏻🐴

    Great video to explain the common tools in R+ training. I also use protected contact when working with horses that are fearful around people and to show me comers to R+ that they don't need to apply subtle (often unconscious) pressure to the horse on order to teach a behaviour. I've book marked this video to send a link to my clients. Thank you

      I actually rambled on for much longer about the protected contact but decided to cut it off there and save the rest for a future video where I talk more about horses with fears around people etc. So absolutely! 100% agree and use it for the same. Glad you liked the video and it's useful for you! :)

      I know this is an old comment, but I figured I’d follow up. The balance mat is linked in the comments. Are you asking about the stationary mat? It’s just a cheap door mat from like Home Depot or something similar

      8' long and get the thicker option. It's linked in the caption. Amazon yes :)

    What is the point of training the horse to go to a fixed target? is it used as a mobile mark for where you want the horse to stand?

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 5 lety

      Theres a lot of things you can do with teaching a horse to target. If you watch some of my videos on Instagram or CZcams you can see some ideas :) Facebook too

  • @laceytrusty8649
    @laceytrusty8649 Před 5 lety +1

    I have a very timid mini mare and loud noises scare her. What, in your experience, is the quietest clicker? I talk to my ponies a lot, so I want to use a clicker as the signal and not my voice. I have it narrowed down to the one you show in this video, the style that Karen Pryor sells, and the purple one that's worn as a ring.

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 5 lety

      I haven't used the ring one but the one in this video is my preferred and the "dullest" sound. Which is better when dealing with easily startled horses. You can also put it in a sock or your pocket to dull the sound further

    • @classicambo9781
      @classicambo9781 Před 3 lety

      I know this was a year ago but for anyone else reading, I used my own tongue click. It was made at the front of my mouth and quite dull and quiet. It was also different from the corner/back of mouth series of clicks that lots of people use to call horses up from paddocks etc and they always knew the difference. Both dogs and horses I should add.

    I use a clicker without a treat with my dog I trained it by giving a treat after the click. Could you do the same with horses?

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 2 lety +2

      Yes! But I highly recommend seeking out an equine professional R+/clicker trainer as there are some adjustments that need to be made between dog and horse training with clicker training based on their species specific needs. The principles and learning theory are the same though!

    If we use cones to stand at etc … how can I use them in horse agility to go around?
    Thanks

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 10 měsíci

      If you need them for horse agility I might use something else as a target. I have a client who used blocks, and another who used mats for the feet to target rather to than the nose.

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 10 měsíci

      Making sure have the cone targeting on stimulus control is important too.

    How do you know if or when your horse has anxiety about food?

    • @TheWillingEquine
      @TheWillingEquine  Před 5 lety +1

      Any kind of stress behaviors like ears back, "stalking you" and not leaving you alone when you have food on you, biting, kicking, "mare face"/sour face, pawing, not standing still.. anything like that :)

      When they've learned the behavior on a varied reinforcement schedule. The clicker/reward isn't a bribe unless you turn it into one.
