[RC] Zoo Animal Treatment - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Sheila Larsen Sheila_Larsen@xxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

I am sure there are several ways, but I know that dolphins and 
elephants have been taught to tolerate vet care using clicker 
training.  My mare was injured and her leg had to be wrapped 
once a day for quite sometime.  I mean, medication, tape, cotton
wrap, and then standing wrap.  It was quite the procedure.  She
learned to plant those legs using clicker training.  Alexandra
Kurland taught her horse to hold his foot up the entire time
she had to treat it.  She has a web site, Clicker Training for 
Horses.
