Just wondered what people's opinions are on this? I know some of you do clicker training with your horses and get good results and I'd thought about doing some with Raf. However I'm not sure about a couple of things - one is the treating. I don't really give Raf treats - he does carrot stretches and I give him a carrot or apple on an evening when I go to see him - but I don't reward him for good behaviour with a treat or use them to catch him etc.
The other thing is - if I try a bit of trick training using the clicker, will he start offering me his tricks all the time and expect treating for them? I could see that being a real nuisance.
