Buoy target with handle

Meg — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 20:23:30 +0000

Earlier in the week I said I would post some pictures of the buoy target I am using. The first picture shows how the buoy can be used with the handle. using-buoy-target-with-handle.JPG While the stallion is targeting calmly now, the handle helped me keep all my fingers! The other picture is with a mare that is in the early stages of learning to go to a remote target. using-yellow-buoy-target-for-initiating-remote-targeting.JPG

I have attached a photo of Dayle, a Canine Companion Inc service puppy in training. We tried to get a picture wearing the BD halter but a black halter doesn’t show up in a photo very well on a black dog!!!!!!!!!! He wears it every day on his walks and during training sessions. He is getting much better wearing it and since the design allows the muzzle piece to ride lower, the abrasion he got from the GL is completely healed. We are very happy.

Black Dog Wear Training Collar

My trainer at Canine Companions for Independence just loaned me a Back Dog training collar that she got in Australia. My pup had a sore near his eye from the Gentle Leader that rode up on him. NO knock on the GL as different dogs have different head structures. He seemed to not be as aggressively trying to remove the BD harness as he was with the other halter. Our boy does happen to be a BLACK DOG. we would love to be able to get Black Dog T-shirts from AUS. you should add them to your inventory (www.mytrainingstore.com)

Training pouch and target

In this recent picture from the Duke University Lemur Center (DULC) you can see the training pouch and target that the staff is using when working with their lemurs. The pouch has front pockets that are great for holding a cliker or other training items and a D ring that is perfect for holding the target.
