    And this is why my daughter has NOT gotten buttons for her cat. She says he’s bossy enough, even without buttons with English words on them to make his wants crystal clear! 🤣🤣🤣

      I can see why people wouldn’t use them for horses - he’d totally destroy it if he did manage to grab it 🤣 maybe we might see large reinforced ones for larger animals in the future?

    This was great, Rudnik going into a treat frenzy, my Dog is the same my 5th rescue , he came from the outback desert so is very smart. Just took a lot of slow work and time to get him to feel like he could trust me not to hurt him. Introducing him to lots of friendly and good people over the last 2yrs, to understand that I will always keep him safe, and that most people are good and won’t hurt him. But he taught himself how to open my Neighbour’s fridge and steal their meat, luckily I’m friend’s with them.

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I do have a ‘button board’ I’ve made to fasten the buttons too. I don’t really have anywhere to mount the board though so I’d have to hold it up or lean it against something but then he’d be able to learn the pattern of where the buttons are and maybe we can teach him to form small sentences! I have a feeling though, that once he knows which ones are the treat buttons those will be the only ones he goes for 😂

    That is sooo cool! I was wondering if he likes one treat more than the other. If so, it would be interesting to hold the carrot button in one hand and the apple button in the other. Then see if he learns to hit the button that rewards him with his preferred treat.

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That’s what I was hoping to work towards with him (then lost the buttons in a cleaning frenzy 🥲) but once he learned each button resulted in a different treat (Apple vs carrot) then I’d be able to learn which one he really likes the most!

      I agree! I’m not sure if he correlates the words to the specific treat or just ‘push button = get treat’ but it’s a start! Once we start adding in new buttons with new meanings it may help to connect them a bit better in his mind. I have a board I’ve done up called ‘Rudniks button board’ but I haven’t put it together yet but I’m curious to see how many buttons we could teach him!

    Do horses see in colour? Especially if trying to tell the difference between blue and green, which are really shades of the same colour.

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      So horses can actually see blues and greens and variations of the two colours but cannot see reds or shades of red. Which is unfortunate because my other two buttons are red and orange so I’m not sure how well he’d be able to see them

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Pardon me, I got that wrong - I have the orange button to represent ‘carrot’ and the green to represent ‘apple’ so my other buttons are blue and red. He’d be able to see the blue but not the red. Orange has a poor visibility but between the green and orange he’d be able to pick out the difference. I may need to look at getting a yellow button to replace the red as that colour would be easier to identify

      @BridMhor หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@rudniktheroan I’ve seen buttons used very well with dogs. But they’re placed on the floor so the dogs know their position rather than the colour. You can’t do that with a horse, unless you can fasten them on the fence. Maybe symbols would work, like crosses, stars, circles, etc. Especially if they were raised like Braille so his sensitive nose could feel the difference.

    • @rudniktheroan
      @rudniktheroan  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I love those ideas! And I do have a piece of wood that I’ve got to attach the buttons too. I was thinking I could hold them up or hang it up somewhere (side of the barn etc) so he can push the buttons that way without them having to be held up. Unfortunately because I board, I don’t have my own barn or anywhere to fasten it but even if I leaned it up against something he may be able to reach down and push them with his nose. It’ll be interesting to see how we can customize them to work for a horse!
