PetSafe Clik-R Trainer

There are quite a few reasons why I love this product. The compact design and attached finger band make it easy to hold. It's a clear method of positive behavior reinforcement, and the included training guide is top-notch. The fact that it's useful for all ages and can train various animals is a big bonus. A nice little clicker with a good sound. Overall, a brilliant tool for training pets.

VOLUME: I have a 5 month old Jackahua and this appears to be perfect for us. It is a softer click, good for inside an apartment or a small courtyard. I would not recommend it for a larger dog park or in an environment with competing noises. HOLDING: I included a pic of how I hold it, as some reviewers reported difficulty. Strap on middle finger, press thumb straight down towards middle finger. This is my arthritic hand and it works well. INSTRUCTIONS: DO follow the enclosed instructions; they are competent and helpful. Do NOT just run around clicking this AT your dog or you will be here whining that it doesn't work. The fault will be yours. REVIEWS: I looked at so many different clickers, reading the reviews, comparing prices, and I'm glad I decided on this one. PROGRESS: Since we just got it today, we are simply working on "association". I'm keeping it next to me with a dish of crumbled treats. When she's not paying attention to me, I'll click and toss her a crumb. She's a little leery of the strange noise, but she really loves these treats (Blue Buffalo), so I'm aiming for a little association practice a few times a day until she gets it into her little doggy brain than the sound means tasty thing. When she's perfectly comfortable with that, we'll move on to "touch", etc.

(I'm a woman, so I don't have man strength in my hands.) While this clicker does work for dog training, it is actually a bit hard to click on the button. It will go down but it does (mine anyway) require a bit of strength and to push on it a certain way. It does free up my hand so that I can also hold a leash or if I needed my hands partially free for anything. The green loop on the back is a little bit too loose but it's not a big deal. It is good deal for the money but I would get a different brand if I had to get another one.

It's not too loud and works as advertised. It's funny how the manual suggests how these can be used on people. I wonder how many people bought it for that reason.

I’ve been using the PetSafe Clik-R Training Tool for a little while now, and overall it’s a solid, reliable clicker with a few minor drawbacks. On the positive side, the ergonomic design and finger band are actually very handy. It sits securely in my hand, so I’m not fumbling with it during training sessions or worrying about dropping it. The click sound is clear and consistent, which makes it easy for my pet to associate the sound with a reward. It’s also small and lightweight, so it’s easy to toss in a pocket or bag and bring along on walks or trips. In terms of performance, it works well for basic positive reinforcement training. My pet caught on quickly, and the clicker has held up fine with regular daily use. I also appreciate that PetSafe is a well-known brand with a long history in the pet industry, which gives me a bit more confidence in the product. That said, there are a few things that keep it from being perfect for me. The click is a little louder/sharper than I expected, which might be a bit much for very noise-sensitive pets or for use in very quiet environments. Also, while the finger band is a nice idea, it may feel a bit tight or awkward depending on your hand size, and it’s not adjustable. It’s a simple tool, so don’t expect any extra features beyond the basic click function. Overall, this is a good, straightforward training clicker that does what it’s supposed to do. If you’re looking for an easy-to-use, compact clicker from a reputable brand, this is a solid choice—just be aware of the slightly loud click and the fit of the finger band.

The clicker I received is not easy or quick to click it is ineffective and inefficient for training. It went right in the trash , thankfully I had also ordered another option that worked much better.

Okay so I'll be honest, I don't use this dog clicker as it's intended, I use it for creating a visual cue in my work as I'm a voice actor and have to edit certain lines certain ways, and this dog clicker has been the one consistent thing in my booth with every upgrade as it has a nice solid click, that creates a very distinctive waveform that I can easily spot throughout the sea of waveforms that is my voice lines. It's comfortable to hold, and is simple to click, well as long as you're holding it right, trying to click it when it's sitting on a table or such isn't exactly easy XD It's small enough to not be in the way, but big enough I can get a good grip on it and not drop it when I'm trying to grab it quickly. And well of course the little finger band helps with that too, but I typically don't hold it while recording so as to not risk wacking it on something in my booth if I get too theatrical. I've also had this clicker for a year and a half as of writing this, and despite being under near-constant use, it works just as well and is in just as good condition as when I first got it. So the tldr is, great for voice actors, provides a solid waveform, fits well in my hand, and lasts excellently under prolonged use.

It is quieter than most clickers but if you are not a long distance away this might be better for your pet. Animal hearing is more delicate than ours. I am training a few pet rats and many clickers are painfully loud for me and definitely scary for sensitive ears / timid pets. The finger strap is ideal - it allows for consistently well timed clicks while still being able to handle luring and treat giving efficiently. Price is good too!

Aunque en la imagen del producto aparezca un perro, este aparato puede ser usado para entrenar todo tipo de animales (gatos, caballos, conejos, hurones, pericos, etc.). En mi caso lo compré para entrenar a mi gatita y aunque hasta ahora no hemos progresado mucho, estoy muy satisfecha con el producto. A pesar de ser muy simple, cumple perfectamente con su función y el sonido que emite no es ni muy fuerte ni muy débil (lo cual hace que sea ideal para entrenar gatos ya que estos se asustan con clickers que hacen demasiado ruido). Además, incluye un instructivo muy detallado (en inglés) que es ideal para principiantes (aunque también existen muchísimos videos en YouTube de los cuales se puede aprender). Por menos de 50 pesos, es una compra fenomenal ya que este producto no siempre se encuentra en tiendas (incluso en las especializadas en productos para mascotas). Solo Petco vende un clicker más barato que este pero el diseño y la calidad no tienen nada que ver. PetSafe jamás decepciona y este producto no es la excepción.

This is the second one of these I purchase, as a backup, because I love these so much. A bit more expensive than the cheaper alternatives, but much higher quality. Fits nicely on finger, the clicker feels sturdy, it would be difficult to accidentally press the button. Easily understood by my Shih-Tzu, Guinea pigs and Parrotlet!

Já estou utilizando a mais de um mês, tem um material de qualidade e funciona muito bem. O som do clicker para treinos em locais fechados é muito bom, como no vídeo em anexo; para treinos em locais abertos o som não é muito alto, mas isso é levando em conta a audição humana, então para os cães, que naturalmente possuem uma audição superior, não deve ser problema.
