Well I have a 8 to 10 pound Yorkie depending on training levels.
I have seen a silky first hand and she not one.
She is clicker all the way now.
As a cross over trainer that worked the old ways and saw them fail first hand and badly. I never would have believed what a clicker and kind words could do before I had to look at it.
My girl lost her way cause I practiced the old school stuff plus a bad start with her first owners.
After being rolled by a pit bull not long ago she working hard again to try and hang in and not be scared.
Positive works and well and it goes deep into trust and respect that rough tough and spanking does not.
What is built in love is strong what built in fear only lasts till the fear is gone.
