Targeting
-spontaneously targeted sticky note on cabinet door 20 minutes after dinner time when I hadn't fed her. Repeated the action emphatically to get my attention.
-clicked, captured, and repeated behaviour
-100% success. Takoda now targets sticky notes - on to closing doors , cabinets and drawers!
Task Training
-weighing down
-95% success, left objects on couch with one 'leave it'. Zen training is working!
Down/Down-Stay + Zen
-still requires 2 cues, voice and hand signal, for down
-with 2 cues 100% success on down and down-stay
-a little more difficult when I poured 1/2 cup of food all over the floor all around her (some pieces in fact touching her). Left them with second 'leave it' command, i allowed her to "find" the treats after a minute stay. 95% success
Two pics today. One is Takoda sleeping under the sticky note she targeted (you can see how mangled it is from her targeting) and the other is my gangly girl sitting at my feet.
