HOW IT WORKS
This is a free 5-day challenge. Throughout the challenge you will be provided with digital downloads, resources, and video clips that outline specific steps that are recommended to help you achieve the goal of training this specific behavior. You will also be invited to join a private Facebook group where you can discuss your triumphs and challenges as well as share ideas with fellow challenge participants.
FAQS
Nope. This is completely free. There is no purchase required or additional fees. Members of AnimalTrainingFundamentals.com do get access to a few additional resources that are a normal part of membership that they can utilize during the challenge. However this is not required to participate in the challenge.
Species that are physically able to easily place their mouth on an object are best suited for this behavior. For example a parrot, a dog, a bear, a fox, a raccoon, a ferret, etc. There are some species in which this action may be very atypical for the species for example suction feeders, or animals more likely to peck than open their mouths. These animals may not be the best candidates for this shaping plan.
I hear that! This challenge is designed to be "somewhat" scheduled. In other words I give you access to small lessons daily to help move you along through the challenge. However you can implement them whenever you have time. Our only time sensitive event is a daily Live Q & A session at 1:00 PM Central. The rest of the activities can occur when it suits your schedule.
You will receive pre-recorded video instructions from me, a daily Live Q & A session from me, and I will also provide feedback in the private Facebook group.
