Awesome!

If she has a sensitive tummy, I wouldn't use *too* much ham though, as I believe it's pretty salty or something... lol. Jackson does fine with some ham though. Just wanted to give a lil' warning! I always bring home leftover steak from dinner, and he would kill for a tiny piece of it. lol.
You can always use the word 'yes!' in replacement of a clicker. You can pick up a regular box clicker at Petsmart or any better store for .99 cents or so

I don't think one is better than the other, it's all about your preference. I like to be able to put it around my wrist so that it's easy access.
Btw, 'spin' is usually a pretty easy, yet adorable trick. Jackson picked that one up super fast and it's the trick I always teach the dogs I sit for.

You just get them to follow the food in a circle.
