lol dont need no stinky clicker When i would train my dogs their reward were ice cubes. I learned that from one of my old bosses and his golden retriever. People are always amazed whwen tehy come over and i give teh dogs ice cubes and they go crazy lol. Even the little chihuahua likes ice cubes, of course he is weird he likes pickles ;). Only dog i've seen who will eat pickles, he likes Jalapeno peppers too but its ok hes a kewl little dog.
