Clicker training is the process of training an animal
using a condition reinforcer, which indicates to the
animal ("marks") the precise behavior that was
correct.  It was originally used in training animals
such as dolphins and pigeons, for which traditional
methods of obedience training weren't useful.  
Although it is a form of operant conditioning, the
more popular name, "clicker training", comes from
the fact that the conditioned reinforcer used by many
dog trainers is a small mechanical device called a
clicker.
SIMPLY PUT
Clicker training is the most efficient, effective, humane form
of training you can do with you dog.
