Does anyone know if the "clicker" really works as a training aid? :dontknow: Anyone used it? :scratch: I'm thinking of getting one for use on my chis.

Clicker training is one of the best ways to train. You can shape behavior so quickly. Timing is everything. We started out at puppy kindergarten with a clicker but the one we used was super LOUD and Brody was scared of it. So the clicker certainly didn't reinforce anything for him! Be sure and test it out in the store before you buy to make sure it has a pleasant little click and doesn't sound like a cap gun going off like ours did!

Using a clicker is an excellent training device, yes! It absolutely works.

I havent used it personally, but my mum said it was good for her shih tzu's and I am now considering it myself
