Her training methods really work. This book definitely changed the way I relate to my dogs, and it made training so much easier. 3 of 3 found this review helpful: Very usable guide, but don't use raisins or grapes as treats!, 2007-04-11 I have read a couple of clicker training books and have also gotten advice from a clicker-savvy friend, but read this to see if it had anything more to offer me. For those who don't know, clicker training uses a marker (the clicker) to mark the exact moment your dog is doing something you want her to. It's very powerful because it sends a kind of snapshot straight to your dog of what you want. You then, of course, give some kind of reward after clicking. I liked that this book had lots of pictures and presented the information in different ways, for people with different styles of learning. Also, the author shows that there is more than one way to teach a behavior, even within the clicker training philosophy. To me, this is where many dog training books fall short. They present one way of approaching a new task, but there are many types of dogs and many types of trainers! To be shown that shaping, luring, and just waiting for behaviors are all possible ways to succeed is very encouraging. Of course, each task must still be broken down into baby steps, and each training session must be positive. My one and only complaint is that Ms Tillman suggests raisins and grapes in her list of possible treats to use for your dog. There is anecdotal evidence that raisins and grapes can cause kidney failure in dogs. It's not necessarily proven, but why take a chance? Read this book, but skip the fruit of the vine! And have fun! 2 of 2 found this review helpful: A Great Clicker Training Guide, 2007-03-22 Clicking with Your Dog is a great introduction to clicker training, and training in general. The pictures are clear and obvious. The instructions are also clear and explain the motivations of your actions and the dogs actions. The book covers the most desired skills to teach a dog - from basic doggy etiquette to more advanced, impressive skills. I had very good results using the book as a guide while training my dogs. I would definitely recommend this book to a friend. 3 of 3 found this review helpful: Good Clicker training manual for the clicker-challenged, 2007-02-07 I liked this book. Instead of going too much into the theory behind clicker training, this is a practical, hands-on manual designed to teach people how to actually DO clicker training. I found some of the tricks to need better explanations, but overall, I liked the book a lot and highly recommend it.
