We also just started learning sidepass with the clicker. He has a sidepull, no bit. He only turns his head for a treat when he is 'clicked'. He is relaxed and comfortable as you can tell by him being 'dropped' if you know what I mean:) He is very flexible and accommodating by turning his head to me to get his treat. The reinforcement rate is high when first teaching something new, but the clicks and treats are phased out as he becomes more solidly trained.
