We hope to promote the use of Clicker Training against the other, cruel methods. Here's our point:
Every day, thousands of dogs are taken scared, and confused, into "training" centres. There, they are beaten, shouted at, and forced to learn and perform tricks. This can include metal chains to pull them, and even shock collars. They send a small voltage electricity through the dogs body. They are used as punishments, or even to keep the dog's concentration. But no matter how small, this voltage hurts, terrifies, and in some cases, even almost KILLS the dog.
We, as a club, are against the use of such methods. There is a way of training, that is much kinder, safer, more fun, and more loving, than these. It is know as, The Clicker Trainer.
Our aim is to promote, and encourage, the use of Clickers. Feel free to ask us for information on what they are, how they help training, and how much they are and where to get them from. We will help you!
Looking for members, donations and currently (8/22/07) contest entries!
