Great Article Melissa!!!

Yay you got it up woooot! Nice and easy to understand :)

It's always hard to transcribe an idea into the written word Karen prior must have her due, but she is an academic It would be like saying Einstein would have been the best astronaunt Excuse my spelling I enjoyed your article, but I understood what you were trying to say Those who wouldn't, those who don't understand might mutter "hunh" and change the dial I think bringing in humane shelters and the speeder stuff were poor analogies They actually broke your flow How about "once your dog has mastered the concept of clicker training your dogs ability to learn will only be limited by your imagination" or "clicker training is an infromational package that makes new dog owners better communicators with their pets!" or " we see kinder, gentler companions with fewer behavior issues and less aggression problems when clicker training is incorporated as a subject in a dogs education" Newbee's to clicker training need meat and potatoes so to speak (don't mean to offend the veggies) Newbees need to know that performance on demand is still the objective I would also argue with Karen that to make an educated choice I need to know what happens if I do and what happens if I don't I love clicker training but it is balance that it takes dog obedience to a whole new level Proof look at Mary Ray a great visual practioner of clicker training Actually it's motivational training that advances dogs both bribery and play After all I can only eat so much ps please don't steal my stuff pps thanks for the article the message needs to reach more ears ppps I think what was lacking was passion pppps I did like the article
