I already bought a clicker a few years ago for my ferrets. But ferrets are more into 'let me discover the world on my own' and I couldn't think of a usefull purpose to teach them :-). So I never used it. Although I know people who have clickered with ferrets.
But for the donkeys, I think its really handy!

Pigs are highly intelligent, and extremely clean in their habits, so, would imagine you could manage pigs Kathc?? |

I read recently about a well known, but now deceased , donkey lady, - I think she died some years ago. Anyway, she got her donkeys to poo in a bucket!
Just thought you might like a further challenge Kath - it could really catch on. Lol

This lady was called Marjorie Dunkels. I was reading her obituary in a 2007 edition of The Donkey. (Yes, it takes a long time for the mail to get to us if the wind is too strong for the pigeons.)
Anyway, apparently she taught her donkeys to do all sorts of tricks, but it didn't specify exactly what the donkeys deposited in the buckets, or how accurate their aim was.

You put a cork in the loo and they can't resist aiming at it.
