Okay- I'm convinced that this is what Olivia (and her mommy ) needs! Just a few questions:

Can I use this for potty training Olivia? She seems to have forgotten her training and no longer seeks out the pad to go potty. If so, do I just click when she's going potty when I place her on the pad? Will she eventually learn that when I get home (and after her initial excitement wears down) that when I click it means to go potty? Should I be saying a command to go to the bathroom after she has learned that the clicker is a positive thing?

Do I go into the training with a command in mind- say "sit" for example- and just catch her sitting and click the clicker to get the ball rolling? How do I make the transition to saying the command?

I downloader a few pages from clickerlessons.com- that looks like a great site!

Thanks for your help!
