Clicker training is when you use positive reinforcement to encourage good behaviors. The clicker is a small device that makes a clicking noise. You can find them at many pet stores, and they are often used in dog training. You reward good behaviors and click at the same time, so the rabbit comes to associate the clicking sound with happy things.  You can also use a simple clicking pen for this sound. Associate the clicker with good things. Give the rabbit food, and as the rabbit takes a bite, make the clicking noise. If it startles the rabbit, you can muffle it a bit. You can also sound the clicker first, then give the bunny a small treat. Repeat several times, training in small bits each day to get your bunny used to the clicker sound. You can test to see if your bunny understands by making the noise when the bunny is doing something else. If it turns towards you, looking for food, the rabbit understands. For instance, maybe you want the rabbit to come when you call it. Once you have the rabbit coming to the clicker, you can start working on its name. As you make the clicking sound, also call the rabbit's name. Reward the rabbit with food as it comes towards you.  Practice this step every day. After a few days, take out the clicking step to try just calling the rabbit's name. The reason you start with clicking is it is a short, identifiable sound that's easy for the bunny to understand. Moving to the name will take a little time. Once you get the rabbit to come to you on cue, you can work on petting and touching. Start by training the rabbit to touch its nose to your hand. After that, work towards petting the rabbit, rewarding with clicking and treats.  As the rabbit approaches you, hold out your hand. If your rabbit comes up to sniff or touch your hand, reward the rabbit with a click and a treat. Move your hand around to different places, and then hold still so the rabbit can approach. Every time the rabbit comes close to or touches your hand, immediately click and deliver a treat. When your rabbit seems confident, start gently moving your hand over its head as it touches you. As you press towards the rabbit, click and give a treat. That way, it associates you touching it with food. Once you pet its head with confidence, try touching other areas, such as its rump or paw. In fact, you can use head pets for a reward for touching other areas once your rabbit finds it enjoyable. If your rabbit seems upset by the petting, move back to just getting it to touch your hand until the rabbit seems happy and confident again. One way to encourage the training to go faster is to wait until it's dinnertime. Then, use the training session to feed it part of its dinner. That way, the rabbit will be more motivated to come over to the food because it's hungry.

Summary: Use a clicker to train tame behaviors. Decide on desired behaviors. Move towards touching. Work when the rabbit is hungry.

Ask your date if she has any favorite colors and, with her input, choose a few colors you both like to base your outfits around. Aim for two or three colors at most. From here, you can find a corsage that fits both of your outfits. You might choose a color scheme based on the seasons. If the special occasion is near Halloween, you could choose orange and black. If you're going to a Valentine's Day dance, you could choose pink, red, and white. While you'll buy your date a corsage, she will usually buy your boutonniere or corsage in return. Ask her what she's planning to purchase so you can buy a similar flower. You might coordinate on the flower type, color, or special accent. To draw connections between you and your date's outfits, buy a corsage that matches a color featured on your outfit. That way, even if your boutonniere does not resemble her corsage exactly, your outfits will match. Rather than the primary color, focus on the color of your tie or similar accessory. Seeing her dress beforehand will help you coordinate your outfits and your flowers, as well as what type of corsage you buy. The two main choices are wrist or pinned corsages. If her dress has sleeves, choose a corsage that you can pin to her chest. For strapless or sleeveless dresses, a wrist corsage will work best. If you decide on a wrist corsage, measure her wrist to order the right size.
Summary: Determine a color scheme with your date. Match with the boutonniere or corsage your date buys for you. Pick a color based on your tie, cummerbund, or vest. Look at a picture of her dress before you buy the corsage.
