I love to do body awareness exercises with all my animals, as i believe it helps them to understand their bodies better, which not only helps to create confidence & trust, but also greatly improves learning skills:)

Will is a 1yr old Miniature shetland who is clicker trained by my 14yr old daughter Jess.

Clicker training helps to develop the most awesome relationship...one that is built on trust & understanding.

Will is from Parlington stud in the Yorkshire Dales

  • @MultiAnimalcrackers oh yeah that would be very cool! I'm mini horse crazy at the moment, looking at some mini shetlands later today but really got my eye on a falabella I have seen, I wonder what I would be able to train?! it would be very exciting!! your Will proves how well they respond to the clicker :)

  • @kidowmer your welcome i am glad you enjoyed. Yes i agree will is like a big dog and walking him is much better than some dogs. Thankyou so much for your comment:))

  • @redcuprar13 Thankyou...lol! dont tell Jess she sounds like me..haha! you know teenagers..haha! oh at that point he had had problems going along the plank one side and she was so capped he had made the choice to jump back on:)) Husband has tried putting one on dvd and it worked..we never expected the quality to have been good enough...so you never know they may be dvd format soon...lol!
