Thanks!!
YTer FirstYorkie is a clicker training advocate, and I would think she would answer YES to all of your questions. She has had remarkable results with her little Joey. While I don't have any experience with your specific questions, I've never heard of anyone speak badly of clicker training.

Here's one of her posts that may answer your questions:

Here's her Part II:

You might also try PMing her. I'm sure she'll be happy to answer your questions.
