A training clicker in a bone shape. A clicker does one job — it makes the same sound every time, at the exact moment the dog gets it right, so the dog learns which behaviour earned the reward rather than guessing from your timing with the treat bag.
The shaped body is easier to hold and find in a pocket than a flat box clicker, which matters more than it sounds when you are also holding a lead and a handful of treats. The click itself is sharp, so start at arm's length with a noise-sensitive dog.
Also in Brightkins: the same clicker in football and puppy shapes. Pair it with small soft rewards from dog treats.
Features
- Consistent marker sound — the same click every press
- Shaped body — easier to grip and locate than a flat clicker
- Reward-based training — marks the behaviour, then you pay it
- Pocket sized
How to use
Charge the clicker first — click, then treat, twenty or so times, until the dog looks for the reward on hearing it. From then on click the instant the behaviour happens and deliver the treat straight after. Never click without paying it, or the marker loses its meaning.
