MINI COURSE – 10 steps for shaping success – MINI COURSE
Hello and welcome to this mini course – the ULTIMATE guide for shaping and training new behaviors. Understanding how shaping works is a really important aspect of managing your animal’s behavior well. I believe that there are also a significant number of skills that are beneficial to develop in order to become efficient and effective shapers of behavior. If you’re unsure about what we mean when we say the word shaping then before you dive into the numerous lessons of this course first make sure to spend some time on the free resources listed below. Then work through the 10 steps for success and think about how you can implement and/or improve these within your own training. Additionally to assist with this lesson being SUPER beneficial I have also included a FREE PDF for you to print out and hang somewhere that you will be able to consistently see.
