12 - Words of Sharing
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.

04 - Words of Uncertainty
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?
