Did you know that regardless of whether you have just gotten your first puppy or whether you are already an exerienced dog owner or trainer - learning these secrets could change your life?

Did you know that everything you have heard about clicker training until now may be just the tip of the iceberg?

Did you know that most people using clicker training today never really unleash the full potential of this powerful technology?

Well, that is going to change for you, my friend...

...as soon as you learn the 4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer.

Meet Emma. She is the kind of dog trainer who is able to solve ANY kind of dog problem. No matter what kind of dog, no matter what kind of behavior problem. Emma knows exactly how to analyze the problem, design a training plan and fix it. And dogs just love her!

Emma used to be just like most other dog owners. She believed that advanced dog training was only for experts with special talents (you know, like the "dog whisperers" on TV).

But then Emma learned about Clicker Training and the 4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer. And when you know these secrets your life changes. Because now you always know where to look for solutions when you want to fix a problem, teach a new behavior or improve your training.

When YOU learn these 4 secrets you too will be ready to face ANY training challenge. And just like Emma you will be laughing at "dog whisperers" with all their superstitious explanations.

Because you will know that dog training is not magic - its SCIENCE. And everyone can learn these scientific principles and use them effectively in their training.

So, where do I learn more about these secrets?

Let´s introduce you to our bestselling dog training book: Clickertraining: The 4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer.

This book was first published in our homeland, Norway. It became a great success and was soon translated and published in Sweden, Denmark and Finland.

Today the book has sold more than 45000 hard copies and has become the #1 clicker training resource in the Nordic countries (and believe me, Norway and Sweden are known for having some of the best dog trainers in the world!).

After many requests the book is now finally available in English. And best of all - you can download it to your computer right now!! In 5 minutes you can be on your way to becoming a supertrainer!

The big question:
Does clicker training really work in real-life situations?

Are you tired of reading endless debates between positive and correction-based dog trainers? I know I am...

Many "positive trainers" accuse correction-based trainers of violence and abuse, and they say that punishment is not effective. Trainers who use punishment on the other hand, want you to believe that positive training is not enough to achieve a reliable result. They tell you that if you train with food the dog will only respond if you have food in your hands etc. So who´s right and who´s wrong?

Well, they are both right - and they are both so wrong!

First, let me tell you straight up: I hate correction-based training! I can´t stand the thought of my dog coming when I call him because he is afraid of what´s going to happen to him if he doesn´t come. Hey, I like dogs! I want them to be happy and there´s no way I´ll train like that.

BUT, I would never say that correction-based training does not work. Of course it works! Dogs are not stupid. They are survivors. If they have to walk on a loose leash or come when called to avoid pain, they will. Violent husbands sometimes have very "obedient" wives, too. But that someting "works" does NOT mean it´s good.

So, what about positive dog training? Well, first of all I don´t call myself a "positive dog trainer". Because it is not about "being nice". It´s about being good!

It´s not about positive training - it´s about SUPERTRAINING!

There are two kinds of positive dog training. There is lousy positive training and there is effective positive training. So what makes positive training lousy and what makes positive training effective?

I would say that it depends partly on the training methodology itself, and partly on how the training is executed by the trainer (trainer skills). I have seen a lot of bad "positive training" in my time (and even more bad punishment-based training, but let´s leave that for now).

There are many positive trainers who base their training on luring (bribing) the dog to get behavior. This kind of training may work OK sometimes, but I consider it old-fashioned and not very interesting (it´s definitely not supertraining!).

Instead I use clicker training! And I consider clicker training to be an extremely effective (positive) training technique when it is used correctly. In clicker training we don´t lure or bribe the dog. The treats are well hidden in our pockets until the dog offers the right behavior on his own. THEN we click and treat. This is a huge difference!

When you are clicker training (and again, I´m talking about supertraining - not just using the clicker as a marker) the dog learns to THINK. The dog learns to solve problems, to experiment, to be creative. The dog feels a sense of control of the training situation - and he loves it!

Very soon you will discover that your dog has become a LEAN, MEAN LEARNING MACHINE capable of learning new behaviors and tricks in record time! You won´t believe how fun dog training can be until you have a dog like this.

And you know what? This could be YOUR DOG in just a few weeks!

I have been in love with clicker training for 13 years (before that I was actually a very successful traditional trainer, but there´s no way I´m going back).

But still I would never guarantee that clicker training will solve all your problems in 6 days (even though all the marketing gurus tell us that we should do just that to sell the ebook!). That would be lying.

No training method can guarantee perfect results in 10 minutes or 6 days, not even in six weeks or six years (if someone tries to do so, please stay away from them!).

Because every method is dependent on a competent trainer. All good dog training - clicker training included - is based on trainer skills. You need to be good at what you are doing. Clicker training is like a race car. It has a bigger speed potential than any other car, but you have to be a good driver.

The truth is: no matter what method you choose, you need to know the 4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer!

Believe me - these 4 secrets are the key to effective clicker training. In fact, they are also the key to effective correction-based training if you (God forbid) train that way. These secrets tell you exactly what to focus onto make your training more effective.

In the book Clickertraining: The 4 Secrets of Becoming a Supertrainer it all comes together. We explain in great detail the principles of clicker training and the theory behind this effective method. AND we show you how to develop your own training skills so that you can become really good at clicker training.

Clicker training can give you excellent, reliable behaviors. But it can also give you something no other training method can: A happy and competent learner ready to learn new behaviors in record time!

This accelerated learning capacity is what makes clicker training so fascinating. I hope you one day will have the privilege of working with a clickerwise dog - then you will know what I´m talking about.

A great training method and a skilled trainer together is what makes dog training magic. But as you already know - it is NOT magic. It is science. And after reading our book you will master that science. We want you to be able to train every behavior you want, and solve every new problem you might face in the future - on your own!

Emma never thought that she could do all this just a few years ago. But now everybody admires her training. In a while it could be you and your dog that everybody admires when they see you training...

Stop wasting your time - let us help you improve your training skills and take your clicker training to a whole new level!

• How to Condition the Clicker and How to Use Alternative Reward Markers.
  The clicker is probably the best conditioned reinforcer available, but you should also have alternatives.
• The 7 Different Teaching Techniques and How to Choose Between Them
  Clicker trainers (and other trainers) can always choose between several different teaching techniques when teaching a new behavior. A Supertrainer should know all of them - and how to choose the right technique for just that behavior.
