Best Dog Training Clickers for 2021

Giving a clear way for owners to communicate with pets, this clicker is great for use for simple training as well as more advanced obedience.

It can be attached to a lanyard, treat bag or set of keys, for quick access and transportability on walks. It is also really easy to hold; the ergonomic shape combined with the finger band on the back means it is comfortable, and you can still use your hands for holding a lead or treats.

You can also attach it to any lead up to 2.5 cm wide, so it is always to hand. The anti-slip rubber coating also means that it will remain in your hand. It is easy to use, and not overly loud, so it will be good for sensitive dogs too.

Want the clicker to hand when you’re in the house or on a walk, but don’t want it to seem like it is getting in the way? This wrist strap is the perfect solution.

You get two clickers with the purchase, and the strap is elastic, so it will fit any sized wrist. It can also be hooked on to belt loops, leads or bags if you would rather it was away from your hand.

There’s also a built-in whistle as well, so you have more choice of sounds to see which one your dog responds to best.

You need your clicker for when the dog behaves. You need the whistle to ensure they come back when off the lead, or to distract their attention away from the other dogs. Juggling between the two is a nightmare.

So, combining both products is a stroke of genius by the Company Of Animals. Click the device when they are close by and have behaved enough to get a treat, and then blow on the whistle when they need to be recalled.

It includes a step-by-step training guide which will show you how to get started, as well as some handy tips on common training techniques when recalling or distance sitting. It is nice and lightweight, and an ergonomic shape for easy holding.

There is also an elasticated wrist strap for securing it to you.

With a nice large button, this is a user-friendly clicker.

There is a finger band and a lanyard, so you can keep it in your possession however you find easiest. The sound is nice and clear without being alarming, too.

With the purchase is some Mikki Training Advice written by Claire Arrowsmith, a professional Animal Behaviourist, so you can have your pup rolling over and dancing in weeks.

Need something which is adjustable when it comes to the sound? This clicker trainer from Rosewood has three settings, to alter the noise based on where you are or how confident your pooch is.

It is a small plastic box with a metal tongue that makes a distinctive sound when pressed, but it won’t rust or wear away and is great quality compared to some of the other fully plastic models out there. It’s a little large to fit in pockets but is easy to carry in your hand.
