Recommendations:

Books and Videos By Karen Pryor:

Clicker books and videos are described and can be ordered through Karen Pryor's web site .
Beginners will enjoy, 'Don't shoot The Dog', by Karen Pryor. It's considered the  'bible' of positive operant conditioning. This easy $6 reader will show you how to work more effectively with all beings (including bosses, spouses and children!).
'Dog and a Dolphin', is a very helpful booklet by Karen that explains how to apply the training described in 'Don't Shoot The Dog' to a dog.
'Lads Before the Wind' is enjoyable reading that shows you how Karen Pryor learned to train dolphins using operant conditioning, and how she approached training problems and triumphed. 'Clicker Magic', Karen's new video is a terrific video for beginners and experienced folks alike. You will see several different critters being trained to a wide variety of behaviors on this tape. Karen Pryor's videos are all excellent.

More Books and Videos:

Marie Gulliford has a home quality VHS tape available about beginning c/t with birds.  This shows beginning c/t in real time, to give the beginner a feel for what training is really like and the amount of time it actually takes.
