Hi AddysMomma. Clicking is a really positive way to train your yorkie. Cos all you do is reward the behaviour you want. There's no yelling, no yanking on a lead. It's all about making the dog think for itself.

When your dog does what you want you "click" it with a clicker (you can get clickers from most pet stores) and give a reward - usually a tasty dog treat cut into really small pieces.

It's a little contract you make with the dog, everytime you click you reward. The website http://www.clickertraining.com has lots of useful info and you can buy clickers.
