Targeting

I almost forgot. Last night I began teaching Paris to "touch" my hand. I was using her as "model" in class. She had not done it as of the class so was planning on showing everyone how to shape this behavior. The second I extended my open hand Paris reached out with her little muzzle and tapped my hand with her nose...so right on! Click, treat. Hand again, yes "touch" click --treat! Paris is going to be a dream to train as she catches on quickly and likes the game of "being a good girl". She eats up praise as well as treats which is great for our no more obnoxious barking.
