The Trixie Target Stick with integrated clicker is an effective tool for training your pet. It can be used for all pets, regardless of age and type of animal. The stick is ideal especially to teach small pets new exercises and set new challenges. Great not just for cats and dogs – try it on your rabbit, guinea pig, rat or bird!

This is how clickers work:
Immediate reward is essential for the successful training of pets. If the time between the desired behaviour and the giving of the reward (e.g., a snack) is too long (> 2 seconds), your pet may not be able to connect the two together. Once trained to work with the clicker, the “click” will provide this immediate reward. Before training your pet with the clicker you will have to teach it to recognise this. Leave the Target Stick folded up and work only with the integrated clicker. On each “click”, give your pet a snack or treat. Over time, your pet will learn that a “click” means “reward”. Repeat this initial training at least 15‑20 times on several successive days. You will now be able to use the “click” as a reward in itself, but don't forget to also regularly add a real treat after a click!
This is how the Target Stick works:
Having trained your pet to associate the “click” with a reward you’ll now be able to use the Target Stick. Teach your pet to follow the stick with its nose by clicking when your pet’s nose touches the ball point on the stick (and following it up with a treat every now and then). You’ll now be able to train your pet to do various exercises, following the stick with its nose.

Does what it’s supposed to.

It works, doesn’t look too poorly made, and does what it’s supposed to.

Bargain Purchase. Ideal when training a pup & you can’t reach the target on the floor yourself.

With this target stick we were able to teach our most recent pup, to retrieve specific random items from the floor for us, which we could not reach or bend down to point at to initiate retrieval. After a few weeks & then moving on to ‘pointing with our foot’ at something we had dropped & needed retrieving with the command ‘fetch’, she picks it up & puts it on a level she knows we can reach. She is not an assistance dog, Just a Very Clever Dalmatian willing to help at anytime & adores praise.

Works brilliantly

I used a clicker like this for the first time. After just a few weeks, our cat is following the target and touching it with her nose. She jumps onto objects, crawls into caves when I tap on them, and even stands on her hind legs. She clearly enjoys it – of course, partly because there’s always a little snack involved :)
,I find the device handy and simple. Yes, maybe it’s relatively loud, but still absolutely fine. After all, you’re not clicking right next to her ear but at a reasonable distance.

As expected

Does what it’s supposed to. Brilliant (:

The rod is quite good, the rest... meh.

Unfortunately, I'm not convinced. Even though the stick is quite practical, the rest doesn't convince me enough to use the clicker regularly.
,The clicker is very difficult to operate; you have to press really hard. You also have to press forward, otherwise it doesn't click properly. Sometimes it didn't work at all, and the rewarding click was missing for Ronya's ears. This made training extremely difficult.

,Now I'm back to using the regular clicker, and well – it works better!
