Advertise on podcast: Words with Horses

I joined the PNW Clicker Training Horses group for a conversation on Saturday May 29th. We had a great conversation about how to use buttons as well as the ethical implications of learning more about our horses' thoughts and feelings.  The video is posted on Youtube and I am sharing the audio here in the podcast.   Youtube Video https://youtu.be/oPhJRZseOeA My Linktree with recommended buttons, books and social media links https://linktr.ee/wordswithhorses

Lira presses a new button for the first time! Also, more plans for making use of my new TikTok popularity. Linktree: https://linktr.ee/wordswithhorses

A new word, a new model of button, and a new focus. Thanks for listening! Check here for my link to buy buttons or to visit my other social media: https://linktr.ee/wordswithhorses. Comments/questions welcome: [email protected]

Work with Lira on a "no" head shake. Also, I'm switching the podcast to a monthly format. Comments welcome [email protected]

I have many stories to share in this episode. First, a novel button use by Lira. Second, introduction of a new button. Third, some early progress on using Equine Sign Language to say Yes! Find more resources and videos on my Linktree: https://linktr.ee/wordswithhorses

Lira is doing much better, but we may have polluted the meaning of the Ouch button. Does she really mean that? Obviously she needs more buttons! But which?

My plans for improvement in podcasting and horse husbandry. Also, Lira presses two buttons! As I post this episode, she is doing much better today.

How I chose and introduced Lira's first 10 communication buttons. Here is a link to the buttons we use: Learning Resources Recordable Answer Buzzers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HT5HBMO/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_8D9TQJH6QQMAG7XNBNSA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
