How to start clicker training your dog- clicker dog training tricks
In this video you will learn the beginning steps to clicker training your dog. I will continue to upload videos of the next steps and important behaviors to teach your dog or puppy right from the start. My videos will cover not only training your dog with a clicker but also without a clicker so pay attention even if you are not interested in using a noise marker to train your dog. 
Some of you might have seen this footage already- it is from the video “What is Clicker Training?” However I have gotten a lot of questions from people on how to start clicker training, so I thought I would make this part of the video into its own tutorial as so many people have requested the information and found it hard to find.
If you do not know what clicker training is, please watch my video!

@kikopup Haha sorry …
@kikopup Haha sorry, I was actually just counting the amount of times you said it, that’s all. By the way, your video’s were a great help when initially learning how to train my dog. It was a lot of fun!
I have a shy dog …
I have a shy dog who has really taken to clicker training, but he doesn’t ever seem interested in whatever treat I try. Hot dogs, chicken, cheese, kibble anything. He absolutely won’t go into a down position, I have tried super awesome treats to lure him and he only stands up and then gets frustrated and distracted! Help!
@CrazyCopper207 …
@CrazyCopper207 Yes- you could recharge the clicker, and use it when you are training new behaviors- one click equals one treat- when your dog is ready to move off treats you can use another marker to mean good job but you may or may not get a reward- like “good boy” etc. For “offering” play the no mugging game- just clicking your dog for waiting calmly until you train or ask for something- see my next video that I am about to post.
@stevey2020 I am …
@stevey2020 I am not sure what you mean? You can click more or less times depending on the dog- some dogs you can just start training and conditioning occurs while you are training other behaviors
@ThisIsHuas …
@ThisIsHuas First search for my video “handling shyness” then look up “How to stop unwanted behavior- the positive interrupter” basically you can interrupt behavior without using intimidation which is not only great for fearful dog s but all animals in general! Even human beings. If your dog is about to pee inside you can use a recall or kissy noise and rush to the door and encourage the dog to go outside. I have a video on house training too “House training a puppy or rescue “
@jam148 you mean …
@jam148 you mean the multi clicker? I bought it online at the dutch version of zooplus, I don’t know where you live. it’s called clix multi clicker, its blue with a volume slider on the back.
@0aniris0 Where …
@0aniris0 Where did you buy that?
@ThisIsHuas Don’t …
@ThisIsHuas Don’t ever correct for going to the bathroom, not even in the house. Because, what the dog may learn is, ‘my owner doesn’t like it when I go to the bathroom in front of him.’ Then, as you can imagine, this can be very counter-productive. Ignore him if he ever has an accident, and obviously reward when he goes outside.
thank you
thank you
@kikopup yeah some …
@kikopup yeah some dogs can be really scared of such noise, this is a very useful idea.
Any tips on clicker …
Any tips on clicker training a dog that has been locked up in a room & neglected his entire life (2-3 yrs)? He’s skiddish when I correct him for peeing in the house & I felt bad since the whole world is pretty much new for him, he doesn’t really know what’s expected of him. So he needs to be taught everythin 1st before I can correct him. The problem is tho, he won’t take food from me.? are there any other ways to charge the clicker? Toys don’t work either he doesn’t know how to play, poor guy.
LOVE! very helpfull
LOVE! very helpfull
This is a great …
This is a great starting point! My cousins really need this as their 8 month old puppy doesn’t have much training or manners.
You said click/ …
You said click/clicker 20 times. Just to let you know.
It is a normal …
It is a normal clicker, I had the same kind of “box” from the petstore and my dog was terrified of the sound, poor guy.
Great idea to warn …
Great idea to warn people about how a clicker can scare your dog, that’s what happened to my dog! he hates my old clicker, even goes upstairs because of it.
I bought a special clicker (called multi clicker) and you can adjust the volume of the clicker. He isnt afraid of the new one and he gets excited when I hold the thing, he knows fun stuff is going to happen.
Hey Emily!
Where …
Hey Emily!
Where can I get a clicker like the one you have? (I suppose it´s not meant to be used for animal training since you have to muffle it?)
Best wishes from Germany!
Thank you for this! …
Thank you for this!!!! I was wondering how your dogs were not scared of the clicker like mine is… now I know! Thanks!
I actually started …
I actually started training Copper to clicker train about a year ago, but over the year i clicker the clicker without giving a treat or clicking for no reason, now he doesn’t even respond to the clicker!!! how can i “Recharge” the clicker? thanks in advance!!! *also, when i try to train him a new trick, he keeps doing old tricks for the treat, instead of focusing on training the new trick.
I like your idea …
I like your idea of muffling the sound of the box clicker with a piece of poster tack, Emily. I also hold the clicker against my body to muffle the sound.
I’ve been looking …
I’ve been looking for a way to muffle the clicker. They are waaaay too loud! Thanks for the tip!
Very helpful
I … 
I told my parents we should do this type of training so we could do the tricks you do because they are so fun!
Very helpful
@CamaroJackRussell …
@CamaroJackRussell I know, I am about to post videos on the first behaviors you should teach when you get a new dog or puppy- and I figured I would post this video first so that I don’t screw people over who might scare their dog with the noise of the clicker right from the start!
