this works real well we carrier these on us all the time

Pros: very helpful

Cons: none

I just started to get into clicker training after taking a few different shelter dogs thru a class. This clicker was inexpensive, easy to find in the store, and seems very durable.

Pros: inexpensive and durable

Cons: n/a

This is a decent clicker that is inexpensive and easy to find. It attaches easily to a key ring or the dog's collar so it is easy to keep it handy. I have seen clicker training work very well for many dogs. It does take practice to get the timing down with the clicking and then giving a treat. I found my dogs responded just as well to initial training with treats and then phasing out the treats and giving praise. I do recommend clicker training as a method to try when working with your dog and I think this clicker would work just as well as more expensive ones.

Pros: reinforcing to many dogs

Cons: my dogs do just as well without it

The whole I idea behind the clicker is to serve as a marker. It marks good or desired behavior. The key to effectively and quickly click on a behavior immedialy so the subject knows exacy hat it did that caused the treat. T'he longer the delay between the desired behavior and the click, the longer the learing process.

This is a relatively durable and inexpensive device that should be a tool used by all dog owners. T'he motivation assesement listed above is pointless. The clicker is not used and it is not intended to motivate. It is intended to mark.

Pros: loud enough for marking behavior

Cons: None

I got this clicker on a whim and tried it with our dog, but things did not go well. She is very skittish and the noise made her very nervous. Also, the clicker was hard for me to use as at times I didn't hit the clicker in the right spot to get the full click.
Since working at our local shelter, I have found another clicker that has a colored button to push and it provides a full, even toned click 100% of the time. That clicker makes a less harsh click and I am even able to use it with Katie and other skittish dogs.

Pros: Inexpensive, nicely colored

Cons: Hard to fully click, very loud
