[nagdu] Targeting with the clicker?

[Daryl Marie]

Hi!

For those of you who use clicker training, I have a couple of questions?

I have started training Jenny with the clicker; we've had reasonable success with it on things like keeping pace, avoiding dog distractions, leaving tasty ground candy alone... Since using the clicker in general, she has gotten much better about finding counters, empty chairs, and even garbage cans.

But how do you target with the clicker?  Obviously when the dog does something you want, you click and treat or click and praise, but beforehand?  Confused.
