Make Training Much Easier—and Fun—with Targets

One of the best ways to build a strong bond w/ your animal is with training

Expanding Your Dog's Foundation Skills Building strong foundation behaviors is an investment that will demonstrate value throughout your dog's training. In this video, KPA CTP Jenny Efimova is using targeting to shape the behavior of going around a cone. She says, "Each time we try a new fitness exercise, I'm struck by how the basics always come through. Touching the nose to a stationary target and following a target are two fluent behaviors for Larkin—ones I've now applied in a myriad of situations. Building strong foundation behaviors matters!"
