Mango learning wave. Please advise

[Nir]

This is my 3rd session with him. let me know what you think. it was hard holding the camera phone in 1 hand and training in other. Also he is a bit camera shy. So let me know. Also what else i can do to improve the training or the trick.

I don't watch videos in the middle of the night due to sleeping birds and family, but will watch later. Just keep all sessions short.

Looks like you are doing well with clicker training.

Welcome back

Great job! I agree with keeping the sessions short at first, and lots of positive reinforcement (which you are doing anyway).

Charlie waves too, just she doesn’t lift her foot very high when doing so, lol. But, we still reward it as a wave.

Doing great! Good job! Just a thought. You might want to be a little faster with the clicker. I notice some times his foot was on its way down when you clicked. That could be confusing. You want to click right at the moment you get the desired action. Looks like it is working. Keep up the great work! Remember. Practice practice practice.

Your clicking is off. Your clicking after he does it when he is already putting his toes down.

The correct time to click/use verbal phrase, is right when he does it/does it right. Which would be a few seconds earlier.
