Pig clicker

Photo: rainforest_ducati/FlickrPigs are much more intelligent than most people give them credit for. Because of their intelligence, pigs NEED to be trained in order to teach them respect and manners. Below are examples we have collected or videos that have been sent to us. We are in the process of redesigning and rewriting some of our pages, this page included, so please excuse the "mess" as we complete the process. The purpose of training your pig is not only so your pig learns to sit or spin, but also to teach your mini pig respect and how leadership works in your home. Clicker TrainingClicker training is a great way to reinforce desired behaviors. The clicker needs to be associated with a positive experience, so using the clicker as the sound and immediately rewarding your pig with a treat helps your pig to understand that the clicker sound is a good thing. To begin, you will need to use the clicker for simple things your pig already knows how to do, such as come when the name is called. Click the clicker and give a treat. Repeat this several times so the sound doesn't startle your pig. Below is Oscar with his mama who shows us how to clicker train a pig. The best part of this is that she is not a professional animal trainer, she and Oscar have become YouTube sensations in pig world though by her creative methods and documenting her experiences with demonstration videos.

Them at In my experience, clicker training is the best way to train a pig. Since they are so very food motivated, clicker training rewards with a sound versus a treat and can prevent food aggression issues when training. Many people "over-reward", not on purpose, but everyones definition of moderation is different. So knowing a pig will do the same command for 1/4 of a single Cheerio that they'd do for a handful of Cheerio's needs to be the first lesson for YOU. Use treats sparingly. How do you train a pig?Pigs are not domestic animals like dogs or horses, they are wild animals and that must be factored into our understanding of their psychology. Unlike domestic animals, humans are not viewed by the pig as a playmate or like a dog views us, but as a potentially deadly predator. Keeping it foremost in the mind helps you to understand many things that you may not have thought about. Pigs are playful and social; they enjoy running, socializing, relaxing, and playing in the mud. Like dogs, they recognize their names and come when called (if they like you). Some will act like they don't hear you, while others will come running as soon as they hear a door open in anticipation that you are there to see or play with them. Besides training them to do tricks, you may want to consider the following activities as well. Train your pig to walk on leash and go for walks. Pigs love

Blue the pig playing basketball, a skill that her human mama worked with her to teach her to take the ball and put it in the net. Pigs care about the end result (which is usually a treat) so they'll rush through a training exercise so they can receive their reward. Teaching your pig the "figure 8" Teaching your pig other tricks Teaching your pig to follow direction, such as the figure 8 can be a useful tool. Using treats or the clicker method as a reward system has proven to be effective with training. Teaching your pig how to work a preschool level puzzle can be mentally stimulating but also reveals how smart pigs really are. Teaching your pig to open a door.There are MANY different things you can teach your pig to do. Dave Millroy taught his pig, Esther-Rose, to be a little more independent. Watch his pig in action.
