The clicker is the best thing in the world and you can do it yourself!!!!! It may scare your dog at first but it should get used to it. We use our clicker for potty every once in a while still just to keep it reinforced and then give her a treat. Eventually you won't have to use it once they learn the command. They'll get to where you can just tell them a command and they should do it. You don't need obidence training to learn how to do it. Just start out telling them a command like "sit" and at first they won't do it but just keep saying sit and once they do hurry up and click it and give them a treat. Only train for about 5 mins at a time b/c of their attention span being short. Eventually they'll catch on. But only click when they do what they're suppose to. It's wonderful!!!!!! Good luck! |
