Quote by Brian Hare

“Clickers do help, but we need to determine exactly when they help and why. I suspect that rather than helping dogs learn faster, clickers make people better trainers. Using a clicker might help owners reward their dogs more consistently or even make owners fell like they have more control during training. We need more research to know for sure.”

“Becoming aware of Albert nosing at his shoulder, Leo turned to pet him. "Is this a dog or a street broom?" "It's Albert," Beatrix replied. The dog promptly collapsed to his side, tail thumping the floor repeatedly. Beatrix smiled. Three months earlier, such a scene would have been unimaginable. Albert would have been so hostile and fearful that she wouldn't have dared to expose him to children. But with patience, love, and discipline- not to mention a great deal of help from Rye- Albert had become a different dog altogether. Gradually he had become accustomed to the constant activity in the household, including the presence of other animals. Now he greeted newness with curiosity rather than fear and aggression. Albert had also gained some much-needed weight, looking sleek and healthy. Beatrix had painstakingly groomed him, stripping and trimming his fur regularly, but leaving the adorable whisks that gave his face a whimsical expression. When Beatrix walked Albert to the village, children gathered around him, and he submitted happily to their petting. He loved to play and fetch. He stole shoes and tried to bury them when no one was looking. He was, in short, a thoroughly normal dog.”

“LA VERDAD DENTRO DE NOSOTROS Nuestra misma naturaleza es la verdad. Es por la verdad que existimos, y es a la verdad que retornamos, fluyendo. Es verdad todo sobre ti en tanto que eres este eco de infinitud. Las flores del desierto crecen y hasta prosperan en tiempos de poco sustento. Ellas confían, días de lluvia aguardan, mientras pujan sus raíces hacia lo profundo hasta que los cielos comiencen a llorar. Sus bendiciones son las que caen del cielo como así también del ojo de nuestra Alma. El latido de la naturaleza está en ti, y tú eres un patrón de la verdad pues el amor late a través de ti.”
