You said that you got Zair to target forward
during a dog distraction
I guess a good way to visualize it is that he is targeting a place ahead of
us, in this case the gate for the house.. or the corner of the street or the
curb..or a pole or the bus stop..You might also say that he is targeting his
chest into the harness too..same result.. a harder straight pull into harness
to a location ahead of us..instead of bailing to the side to deal with the
dogs..I am ok with a speed up past lunging barking dogs as a default
behavior.. Just cue the place we are going to..and reward it when we get
there..
