The below has been cross posted on several dogs’ lists. \u00a0I don’t know the original author of the chicken crossing the road, or the name of the \u00a0author who put in the dog trainers’ names<\/p>\n
I think it is cute and of course, there are so many different methods of training a dog \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?<\/strong> Pavlov<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> we fed the chicken on the opposite side of the road each day at 4 p.m. until the chicken\u2019s autonomic system actually began causing the chicken to cross the road at 4 p.m. without even questioning the \u201cwhy.<\/p>\n B.F. Skinne<\/strong><\/span>r<\/strong>: on prior occasions when the chicken voluntarily crossed the road, this behavior was followed immediately by a reinforcing consequence.<\/p>\n Cesar Milan<\/strong><\/span>: I bullied, chased, poked, and intimidated the chicken until it raced across the road because I am a strong leader.<\/p>\n Barbara Woodhouse<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> You just say, \u201cWalkies\u201d with the right accent and place a crumpet on the other side of the road.<\/p>\n Karen Pryor<\/strong><\/span>: by associating R+ with road crossing and P+ with standing still, with a VR schedule, and offering a reward in keeping with the Premack principal, we increased the intensity and frequency of the road crossing behavior.<\/p>\n Bill Koehler<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> a few well-timed pops on the choke chain and the chicken was happy to cross the road.<\/p>\n Nicholas Dodman<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> I gave the chicken fluoxetine, sertraline, paroxetine, carbamazepine, and azapirone and then it was happy to cross the road.<\/p>\n Patti Ruzzo<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> I crossed the road, pausing every step to spit a treat out of my mouth \u00a0like a human pez dispenser and the chicken followed along catching the treats.<\/p>\n Electric Collar<\/strong><\/span> Advocate: whenever the chicken does not cross the road I give it an electric shock. But do not worry, the shock is no more than you would feel if you walked on a carpet wearing socks and it does not bother the chicken at all. The feathers standing up and the smell of burning flesh mean nothing. In fact, they are happier having nice clear communication than they would be otherwise.<\/p>\n Yuppie<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> chickens are just like little people in feather jackets, and if you love them and give them diamonds and feel sorry for them all the time, they would be happy to cross the road for you.<\/p>\n Paris Hilton<\/strong><\/span>: Because I put it in a Gucci bag and carried it.<\/p>\n Shelter director<\/strong><\/span>: <\/strong>Any chickens that do not cross the road will be euthanized \u00a0for their own good, and the others we will \u201cadopt\u201d out tomorrow for only$200 each. Please send us money so we can keep doing more of this important work.<\/p>\n HSUS member<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> I do not know anything about animals, I have never been around animals and am not really fond of animals, but we passed a law mandating that chickens be kept without cages because animals belong only in the wild and cannot be happy coexisting with man, so now they are walking wherever they want.<\/p>\n PETA member<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong> chickens have the right to live in world without roads. Any chicken that lives within a hundred miles of a road is suffering an inhumane existence and might eventually be hit by a car so we should kill it today to ensure it does not die tomorrow.<\/p>\n And, of course, there is always a simple solution that you don’t need a trainer or anyone to tell you and it is simply this:<\/p>\n The chicken wanted to get to the other side of the road \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The below has been cross posted on several dogs’ lists. \u00a0I don’t know the original author of the chicken crossing the road, or the name of the \u00a0author who put in the dog trainers’ names I think it is cute and of course, there are so many different methods of training a dog \ud83d\ude42 WHY […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[53],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
