I used a couple of good books: Getting Started: Clicker Training for Dogs by
Karen Pryor and Clicking with Your Dog by Peggy Tillman are both good books and
easy to follow. Also, lots of puppy and basic obedience classes offer clicker
training.

You can get a clicker at Petsmart or Petco. There are also lots of books
on clicker training. It's easy and is all about positive reinforcement. The
clicker sound is used to "mark" the behavior (ex. sit, down, ect.) that you
want. The idia is to "click" the second they sit (or whatever you are training
them to do) and then give them a treat reward. My Australian Shepherd is 2
years old and knows about 20 tricks! He learned them all with clicker
training. I just got my little Chi puppy but I plan on training her that way
too.
