So Sam totally gets target training. He sees the target and clicker come out and he starts pacing. He will go all over his cage, inside and out to touch the target. He was likely target trained in his last home because he took to it in seconds.
I don't know how to proceed though? If I put my hand up he will totally abandon his target for my hand. (Anyone reading who doesn't know, Sam greatly dislikes me and has chosen my husband as his person.)
He's flighted, but I haven't been able to get him to fly from the cage for the target either.
I'm not sure how to advance him and everything I read on target training is basics of how to do it or how to incorporate the step up, which he's definitely not ready for.
