Clicker Training the Human Male

It is true. I will have to back up Marci on this one. We can be trained. That is for sure. My fiance' has already trained me to put the toilet seat down. I'm sure there is plenty more things for me to learn. I am so excited. Have a happy holiday weekend everyone. Your downtowntrainer--PRESTON

I still don't believe it. Mine seems to be totally untrainable. I would rather train a pack of wild wolves than him. He just doesn't get it! Luckily he's a good guy and so easy going-just not trainable.

can we send my Daddy over? He needs some training too.

It kind of depends on the kind of reinforcement you use for the human male. I find that beer and seduction work well.

HA!! You must have a really good trainee. lol xoxo D

Marci, if you can train a human male, you can train anything!! I don't have the patience for it!

Most male human species are impossible to train unless training started at a very young age. It is pertinent when looking for the right male that you keep a checklist of qualities that will meet your specific needs such as: 1. Can he hit the toilet? 2. Is he sensitive to the needs of others in the household? 3. Does he snap at others? 4. Is he dominant with other males (you can tell this by waiting to see if he rolls over on his back when other males are in the area)? 5. When called, does he immediately come to you or does he wander around aimlessly until you threaten to lock him out?

As mentioned earlier, these things can primarily only be trained from an early age, so be certain to meet the maternal unit to see what her characteristics are as well. It would also help to meet the paternal unit to see any behavioral patterns.

Clicker training has been shown with male humans to only agitate them, especially when there is a football game on.

The most important thing to remember is this: Do not get a male human with the intention of training him. Be certain you have obtained the one that best suits your needs to begin with.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! ROFL!! This is good advice! :)
I've pretty much given up on any kind of serious relationship. I just hang out with my ex (Bev's dad) from time to time. It's hard to find a guy who loves animals, doesn't have kids, and does have a decent job. Not that I don't love kids. I've just had my fill of dealing with ex-wives!
