Describe the behavior you will teach, where it will occur, and what the cue will be.
Training with a target stick creates better understanding for the dog with fewer steps. In short, it’s effective and efficient.
Target training is when you teach an animal to touch a predetermined body part to a particular object.
Reinforce now and then, always with a compliment for specific good service.
Think about the outcome you are looking for by taking on this training project. What clarity do you wish your dog to have when you have completed your training?
Your goal is to acknowledge and isolate the triggers that precede your dog’s barking events.
Effective training procedures lay the foundation for an animal's healthy socialization, capacity for learning and will help prevent behavior problems.
Teaching new behaviors to learners in your care is not rocket science: It's behavior science!
