Karen Pryor Clicker Training Kit
Every little dog is happier when he knows what's expected of him! This Dog Training Kit, powered by Clicker Training, gives you the tools to let your pup know what you want him to do. The Dog Training Kit from Karen Pryor includes the i-Click clicker. The i-Click is small and easy to use, and it's quiet enough for indoors.The Kit also includes the book, Getting Started: Clicker Training for Dogs by Karen Pryor, the clicker training pioneer! Pryor shows you the ins and outs of clicker training, from timing your clicks to teaching cute tricks. This book has step-by-step photographs of many important (and fun) behaviors.
Most fun, the Kit includes the Click-a-Trick cards. In up to ten steps your little dog will learn nine useful and fun behaviors like Leash manners and Gimme five.
Little Dogs: Training your pint-sized companion
Little Dogs is a terrific new paperback book that talks, very specifically, about the joys and challenges of small dog ownership. Hints, tips, and techniques are discussed, anecdotes related and wonderful, full-color pictures of many small breeds are included. So Your Dog's Not Lassie: Tips for training difficult dogs and independent breeds
So Your Dog's Not Lassie is one of the best training books we've found, written by Betty Fisher and Suzanne Delzio, women who really seem to understand that not every dog's wish is to please his owner. As small dog owners, we can relate! This book is for people who want a well-behaved canine companion - big or little, as well as those who aim for competitive obedience training. It clearly explains how to train, as well as giving some background on why the dog does what it does, and what to do about it. Delightful anecdotes and examples are included throughout, as well as clear, black and white photographs. Outwitting Dogs
Outwitting Dogs uses positive training techniques to housetrain your pup, and outwit the neighbor's terror! Use brain rather than brawn! Terry Ryan has more than 25 years experience in training dogs using positive reinforcement methods. Dogs need motivation
Keep some small treats at hand to reward your dog for behaviors you want to encourage. You'll want it to be something small, so the dog doesn't have to stop and chew. We love Toy Temptations for training - and so do our dogs! Keep that motivation handy!
The Treat 'N Ball Bag makes it easy
The Treat 'N Ball Bag by Outward Hound is ideal for holding your little dog's treats or toys for playtime or training time! The outside is durable canvas but the inside is nylon. The nylon liner can be closed tight and locked with a drawstring. There's a belt clip and velcro fastener on the back so that the Treat 'N Ball Bag will stay in place and leave your hands free. With the drawstring tight, your dog's toy or treats will stay out of sight and the treats will stay fresh. There's even a little velcro-closed pocket on the front for your key! What's your dog's best trick?
