I have NEVER been able to teach a dog to target. I can teach a dog the name of a toy, and to go get a toy sometimes, but getting a dog to pick up something I am pointing at, or find my other shoe has been IMPOSSIBLE. Is the secret in the "reward" or the timing of a "clicker" or something else? Your dogs can find a just about anything you want. I have a Black and Tan Coon Hound and a Cardigan Corgie. These are smart breeds. Am I the dumb one?
