There used to be several. I ran one for a while. A lot of them went the
way of the dinosaur with changes to the behind the scenes list management
software. I don't know of any that are currently active. You can feel free
to post away with clicker questions here. Rox is very accomplished clicker
trainer and there are several others who know what they are doing. I feel
like I have a decent grasp of clicker and use it with my dogs. I'll help
too.
Just to get you started...skip the whole eye contact thing and teach a hand
target as your foundation clicker skill. A hand target is when the dog
touches your hand with his nose on cue.

Subject: [NAGDU] Visually-impaired clicker trainers list?
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if there is a specific mailing list for
blind/visually-impaired clicker trainers? I am subscribed to a general
clicker training list, but it's all about doing things visually, making eye
contact and that kind of thing, I need something that talks about what to do
in a more tactile way if you see what I mean!
Many thanks, Tracy
