So, as was recommended I have started some target training. We have not gotten very far. My GCC has been rewarded for looking at the object, and moving toward it. The rewards are either very tiny diced up apple or very tiny broken up banana chips. He gets super excited over these treats. To the point that if you touch him he wants to attack you .(It reminds me of how a dog tends to get when enjoying a bone.)
So, I'm unsure if this is actually working or actually backfiring. It seems to be reinforcing the biting behavior that I'm trying to work with him to stop doing.
Maybe I need to switch to a different treat. (I was just trying to make the exercise motivating and rewarding.)
Any advice?
