Product Description

A clicker training program would not be complete without a COA Target Stick.
When not in use, it can be tucked into a pocket or a treat bag thanks to its telescopic design. Retractable length of 15 cm, extended length of 70 cm.
To make clear signals to dogs, use a foam ball of 30mm in diameter.
Target Sticks have a tactile foam ball at the end of them, which provides a visual guide to the dog for basic obedience commands such as sit and down, but it also provides a valuable tool for more advanced tricks.

Questions & Answers

Is this a large or small black ball at the end? Do you have the red or black ball?

There is a bigger red ball to go with it!

Does the ball have a soft feel?

I believe this ball is made of Foam Rubber, as the ball has a very dense feel to it. Squeeze the ball and you will notice that the texture is soft, but the ball is extremely solid.

Can I use the Cocatiel stick as a target?

Work with birds is not familiar to me. A dog trainer gave it to me so I could train my dog. Simple metal rods with a styrofoam ball at the end are used in this game. The end of the dog's nose is used to target various objects.

Selected User Reviews For COA Target Stick

My older sad cat is now HAPPY and will love you even more because you gave him a clicker, target, and treats! My cat is a wonderful independent self-sufficient creature who had lost interest in her toys and stuff because it was boring
5/5

Not happy with her life, she just wasn't satisfied. The point was to see if I could relive some of the fun and spice that had gone out of her life with a clicker target and some fun treats, even though I was skeptical she could learn My bad! I guess I was wrong after all. Using a clicker and the Clix Target Stick, we were able to get her going in no time! The operator finally mastered a number of tricks, including doing things like getting off the kitchen table, jumping into boxes, and jumping between chairs, after a period of trial and error. The paws of her dog swish out (claws out) and she leaps through hoops on command! A complete system after about 4 weeks of training (mainly for the operator. It has been so amazing to see my cats attitud changes. Since she has been happier, she often joins in with the game of Clix Target Stick. She is at least 30 years old, but she is still so smart despite being old. We love playing this game together, and my family cannot believe she is so wise. It surprised me how little time is spent on training. About two or three times a week, I do five minutes of writing Each day you will have ten minutes to spare. There will be no end to the love your cat has for you!.

This COA Target Stick was a good buy
4/5

In an effort to start training my parrot, I bought a COA Target Stick. Here are the GOOD things *Brief description here This was an inexpensive item.
Oh, please. I've seen a clicker that comes with a built-in target stick for around $18. For a total of $6, I purchased this and a separate clicker. Please specify 2. The interface is simple It looks like the antenna from an old television The ear of a rabbit. The extensions can be pulled out in different sections to extend & enhance Pushes back into the shortening again with none of the usual trouble. The third point. It can be attached to a shirt or pocket with the help of a clip. Having not yet taken it outdoors (and most likely will not) I have not had an opportunity to use this feature. It would be helpful to take a dog to the park for training if this clip were used. 1. 2. 3. There is an instruction booklet included with this item. It's true that I haven't gotten a chance to look at this much because of my eye problems, but it was nice to have it included in This is NOT THE I like this *Brief description here A type of foam, the ball is unlikely to last very long. If my bird ever got a hold of it, it would be toast. It's rather surprising it's not a plastic bead maybe the intention was to keep the stick light. There is a loose connection between the ball and the net. I'm not No tighter). The ball is locked in place, and I'd like to replace it with a bead, but I can't remove it. It was a good purchase for me all things considered. As of right now, my parrot is responding well to the clicker and other devices This stick remains a terrifying target for her. Having said that, maybe the ball will last a little longer than I expected. In the future, I hope she will become comfortable with the target stick, but if not, this is a cheap enough purchase that it won't be a waste. Thank you for spending time reading my review.

It seems a bit pointless to me
3/5

Yes, I am in great shape and I am in good strength and it works. It telescopes and shuts shut. It's sturdy and shiny. It has a tip on the end that looks like a foam ball. is sort of a dumb color because dogs are not able to see it. In addition, my dog does not appear to be interested in it anyhow, which may be due to the fact that dogs cannot see red and for some reason, the manufacturer made the tip read. The size is similar to that of a pen when it is completely closed and the size of an entire arm when it is.

I think it's pretty good! My favorite part of this target stick is its shape
4/5

I like how the telescopic function works and how the clip works. When my dog gets too enthusiastic about targeting, she bumps it a little hard and she bends the target pole. If the target itself were rubber, it would be perfect. I can bend back into place, but it is annoying to have to do it twice. She built the foam target in her mouth when she first learned to target and did not realize she wasn't supposed to put it in her mouth. The target stick is completely worth the time and effort it takes to train your dog. Using it is a very easy way to teach more complex behaviors.

A target stick is a much more convenient tool than a traditional one
5/5

Using this speed stick to teach spins is much more convenient than using a standard target stick. Since it's a longer stick than the other ones I have, I found teaching spins more As long as I keep it in my pocket, it will fit in my Due to its small size, I lost it already.

Training tool perfect for your students! Trying to teach my dog how to target (work toward loose leash walking) has been on my list for a while
5/5

The other target stick I had in the past had a clicker attached, and I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as The clip allows it to be attached easily to a shirt pocket or treat bag when not in use. (If you're wondering, it's not hard to hold this and a clicker at the same time!) Moreover, the ball on the end is soft (not hard plastic like the others). The "touch" command was picked up by my dog very quickly in this setting, and we'll use this as a stepping stone for the teaching of other tricks and obedience.

Training is great with this
5/5

I was recommended to use the clicker by my vet We were having behavioral issues with our cat, that we were training him to handle. My decision to buy this came after it became evident that I would not be able to bend all the way down to my cat to teach her the word target. Thank you for this! I am very pleased with it. My cats were both naturally attracted to the red ball and found it to be very appealing Taking training to a whole new level! Because the ball on the target stick is bigger than the ones on some other sticks on the market, my cat is able to see it better My husband and I love this product and recommend it to everyone. Whenever I bring out that thing, my cat seems to get excited!.
