Clips of two sessions on consecutive days of me clicker-training my 15-month-old service-dog-in-training, Barnum (a bouvier des Flandres), to press his head against my thigh. I was actually experiencing agitation during the training, although it's not visible. This is the very beginning of shaping this skill.

  • Thank you, Denise, :-) I don't actually consider Barnum a PSD since by far he is performing mobility-related service skills. But my brain injury does affect me emotionally, too, and I thought I'd try my hand (pun intended! ;-b) at seeing if there was something he could do to help with agitation.

  • Good job, Sharon

  • @vikidobe Thanks so much! I appreciate the click! ;-)
