This video shows Rosie at eight weeks of age in her first clicker training session; I am teaching her to mand for my attention rather to pounce on me as she was inclined to do when she arrived on the ranch! I edited this video to clean it up a bit, so the first 60 seconds or so isn't shown, but that's all it took for this bright pup to learn to play this game with me. I taught her the behavior using the clicker and treats, and will reinforce the behavior over time using the clicker and treats, snuggles, and my verbal praise. Once this behavior is solidly learned the use of the clicker is no longer necessary.
