Book Reviews of Clicking With Your Dog: Step-By-Step in Pictures (Karen Pryor Clicker Books)
Book Review: Not For All Dogs Or Situations
Summary: 3 Stars
First to those who think your dog will get over weight on clicker training. It is very simple to measure out their next feeding and take the "treats" from there.
I determined that the clicker method would not work with the dog that I had just acquired. His attention span was a nanosecond! First thing I discovered is he had never had a real hands on relation with a human before. So all training stopped until he got to the point of being petted and groomed. Next I determined that he did know some commands; sit, stay, down. These commands were reinforced again by contact and praise.
When I teach him a new command I do use the clicker until he pays attention, then immediately turn to praise. Please do not get "locked" into one type of training and never try to train a vicious dog. Either get rid of him or take him to a professional trainer. Perhaps I would have had better luck with the clicker method if I had gotten this dog as a small pup. However, he came to me as a 5 month old black lab, weighing 70 pounds of pure energy.
Please maintain flexibility in your training method. Sometimes we have to be smarter than the dog (G).
