Clicker Training?

Hey there. I have an 8 month old OES named Mr. Albert. I have enrolled him in a basic obedience class that will use the clicker training method. I do not know anything about this method, but the trainer assured me that it was safe and affective. Does anyon know anything about it? Thanks for your help.

It is safe and effective. It's on the same line as reward training - but in this case the reward is a "click". It's very similar in the way I trained Sydney - but in her case (she's deaf) - instead of a "click" - I gave her the THUMBS UP symbol.

Here's a website that explains it ...

We didn't use this in our basic obedience class - but the training facility where I took the dogs had special "clicker" classes.
