Clicker Training Introduction
Clicker training with dogs is fairly well known, but all animals can be trained with the “Clicker” method, cats, birds, horses and most others. Dogs soon learn that when they perform a particular action it gets them a reward immediately after hearing the click, this is a very positive way of training, which dogs react well to. They soon start performing the action in the hope of getting another treat.

Your German Shepherd Puppy: How To Choose The Right One
A German Shepherd puppy is irresistible, and German Shepherds are great dogs. They make excellent companions and loving, protective members of the family. They’re highly intelligent, athletic, self-confident, and extremely alert. They’re naturally devoted to their human pack, and though you won’t see a Shepherd fawning all over somebody, they’re very bonded and affectionate with their families. A healthy, well-bred German Shepherd puppy is never aggressive, naturally watchful, and will soon become protective of his people and territory.
