Clicker training is an interesting method for training your dog in which you use positive reinforcement paired with the noise of a handheld clicker. The clicker is used to mark the behavior so that the dog will identify the rewarded behavior more quickly.
Some trainers prefer to make the clicking noise with their mouth, and similarly, some deaf dogs have even been trained using positive reinforcement and a visual aid or vibrating collar instead.
