Hollywood has their own version of clicker training - based on a true story.

Ruger dropped one of my clickers in my purse the other day. I guess he thought I should be clicker training at work. I can just see it now; someone exhibits a behavior I am looking for, I click and quickly shove an M & M in their mouth. Well, that is a dream for another time.

Recently we saw Jurassic World and the main character was clicker training Velociraptors. Hollywood has access to a huge amount of animal training talent, so whoever was advising the Jurassic World crew on clicker training should be dropped in a pit of Velociraptors (well probably not that drastic). Instead of one click marking the behavior of the Velociraptors, our hero would click the heck out of the clicker.  Can you believe this is all I have taken out of that movie? I know that sound terribly Rain Man, but I was taught better (thanks to Kama and Jubie). I thought it was a cool thing to introduce into the movie, because clicker training is so effective, but then in true Hollywood style, one click was not enough, they had to pimp clicker training - argh! I do not remember much about the movie, sure Bryce Dallas Howard was beautiful and Chris Pratt was ripped, but the poorly executed clicker training is what I have taken away from that movie. Also, as Mike reminded me, don't babysit anyone's kids at a Jurassic theme park.

P.S. If you want to investigate proper clicker training go to Club-Doggie.com, contact Kama and Jubie. Tell them Jurassic World sent you (or you just want to be a better trainer).
