I've now got my clickers on spiral wrist bands of his type (you may be able to find singles other places) and also to charge a marker word such as Yes! for times I can't get to the clicker in time. You've always got your voice ready. I do the same thing. You need to have the clicker ready to click at just the right moment, and if you have to pull it out of your pocket the click will be too late. A combination of clicker and "yes!" spoken in as exactly the same tone of voice each time as possible will do the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppyMavis Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I completely agree, and should have mentioned that we used both a clicker and "yes!" as markers for exactly this reason. We charged the "yes" marker by doing something like this: https://positivepartnersdogtraining.com/charging-a-marker-word-or-clicker/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentleLake Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Sorry. I missed adding the link to the type of wrist band. It's https://www.amazon.com/spiral-coil-wristband/s?page=1&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Aspiral coil wristband Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrecar Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 I have this clicker, which I don’t have to keep in my pocket. The wrist band is probably more comfortable though. It takes a while with mine before you get comfortable with the sensation of having something in your hand, even though you’re technically not holding it. https://www.google.com/search?q=clicker+worn+as+ring+dog+training&client=safari&channel=ipad_bm&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiY-5Gi0p7gAhVMGt8KHac6AoEQ_AUoAnoECA0QAg&biw=1024&bih=638#imgrc=uQ08gpE1pTqwgM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
