Just 2 Quick questions,

Whats the easiest way to get my puppy to respond/react to his name? He's doing very well in his training so far, he's pretty good at 'sit', bed' and nearly 'down'. Just started training on Monday I know its not in incredible but time is limited due to exams . He's 4 months old now (btw, is this very late to start training??)

Second question, Is clicker training worth doing. I've read a lot of articles on it saying its great but i'm looking for a couple of irish dog owners opinions.

What has worked for you guys.

Thanks in advance

Works really well for animals but also works for spouses and kids
