We're doing clicker training with Macy and love it! Two good books are "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Positive Dog Training" and "Quick Clicks." I would recommend a class to get you started, though.

I've heard that clicker training is about the most effective method that there is. I tried it though, and the constant clicking sound drives me NUTS!

I clicker train, too. I have found it very effective. A class would be a great idea for you so that you can see the instructor in action. :-)

i've just started clicker training and even though my dog is a maniac it has been very effective, if you can find a trainer it would be well worth it though, as coordinating the process and timing the click would be easier with someone experienced to help.......good luck, let us know how it goes! :)

as an add-on to my post yesterday, i have been working with dresden on several things - sit, down, etc- and she has gotten pretty good, a couple days ago i started teaching her "heel" (now bearing in mind that this is a very impatient dog that pulls ALL the time), i've only worked with her twice (and the first time was in my yard) and she is already getting it!

it really is impressive how much dogs will do for you on their own if you're not forcing and jerking and if you reward the positive behavior! :):):)
