Description

Teaching a dog to follow a “target” is the best way to train both simple and complicated behaviors. Targeting is useful for everything from training the family dog to competitive obedience and agility. The detailed instructions in this book will deliver outstanding results! Save your back, work at a distance, or get tricky parts of the dog, such as the back feet, moving the way you want them to move. You’ll learn how to train your dog to target your hand, a contact disk or a target stick, then utilize targets to build complex behaviors. Teaches you how to break down a behavior into easily trainable steps. Target training can be used for at-home manners, therapy dog work, canine sports, or to teach tricks. Targeting can help you get to your goal no matter what it is!

Mandy has been an instructor for more than 25 years. She began clicker training early in her dog career after attending a seminar by Karen Pryor and Gary Wilkes in 1990. She owns three dogs and currently competes in agility, where she uses the precision and enthusiasm that clicker training offers to get the most from her dog. She is co- author of Quick Clicks.

Cheryl has been a journalist focusing on dogs for more than 15 years. She was one of the first to report on clicker training, and has continued to write and study about the technique. All her dogs have been rescues, and clicker training has proven a most excellent tool for helping them past their individual problems. Cheryl is an award winning author of Dog Friendly Gardens, Visiting the Dog Park and co-author of Quick Clicks.
