I have done some clicker training with Holly. She just loves it. I bought the clicker training video on ebay, also on Karen Pryor's website I have purchased the book "Click for Joy" by Melissa Alexander, and also "Clicking with your Dog" by Peggy Tillman. All of these items have been very, very helpful. Also I belong to a Clicker Solutions website on Yahoo. Here is the thread for that:
Clicker Solutions
With clicker training, I have taught Holly how to "roll over", "sit", "stay", "wait", "wave", "chase your tail", "down". She just loves learning new things, clicker training makes it fun for her (and me!) Right now we are working on "take a bow", and "shut the door". The most difficult thing I had trouble teaching her so far, was the "roll over" I went on the Clicker Solutions website and posted a message. I got a helpful reply back telling me what to do (taking mini steps until I got the desired behavior) and it worked!!
Good luck and have fun!
