[Cagdu] clicker traning

[Ken Volonte]

Hi Shannon.  I don't think my first email went through, so I'll try again. 
I have a lot of questions about clicker training.  I said in my "clicker" 
message that it introduced some variables that didn't need to be there.  I'm 
sure willing to give it a try, because GDB is my school and I'm an eager and 
willing student.  I do have a couple questions though.  Where did you get 
your dog from?  If this is not your first dog, did you notice a difference 
either in your dog's behavior or confidence?  Thanks for taking the time to 
answer my posting.  Ken
