Puppy Training - Step 1 - Target Training Using Positive Reinforcement

In this video Chad Hines with Willow Creek Kennels shows you how to teach your puppy to recall to a target using positive reinforcement and a secondary reinforcer, a clicker. This is the first step in a series of puppy training basics. Although we put these videos in a sequence, you can certainly train your dog out of sequence. And it is never to late to teach an old dog new tricks!
