Training aid with signal for conditioned positive behavior

Clicker training is a gentle and quick training technique. The Trixie clicker is a small tool that produces a special signal: click-clack! At the beginning, you show the animal that the signal announces the arrival of a treat. Once the animal understands (typically after just three repetitions), the signal becomes a very effective means to simplify the animal's association between its behavior and the reward. The unique aspect of this training is that clicker training relies on reward rather than punishment.
