Default What training style do you practice?

Just wondering why form of training you guy do with your yorkies. What are the pro's and cons if any. I've heard of Clicker training, Positive reinforcement also the form of training advocated by ceasar milan (dog whisperer). Which do You like and has worked for you?

The first two clicker training and positive reinforcement I've heard that dogs become to dependent on treats to do anything. Ceasar Milans method from what I understand has more to do with dominance...where the dog just respects you our of fear (please don't get offended if I got that wrong). Also I've heard it's pretty old style (chokes etc) and not really advocated by most trainers now a day.

Also I love reading so recommend any books you like..

Thanks

John
