Question 1

The description has me a bit confused; will this still click while the rod is extended?

Accepted Answer

Yes!  You hold the purple handle and the green ball on the end is attached to an antenna-- you can extend it anywhere from a few inches to a few feet.  Then, just click the "clicker" with your thumb!  I love this tool for training.  The clicker is very easy to use.

Question 2

I have a small cockapoo who sometimes refuses to walk on leash.  Can I put a treat on the end of stick to coax him along

Accepted Answer

This stick is intended to be a target.  Look up Karen Pryor's books on clicker training, you would teach your dog to touch the end of the stick to get a click/treat.  Then you can use the stick as a target for him and he will want to walk and touch the end of the stick to get a click and a treat.  That's training the dog.  If you don't want to work on the training, you could easily put some peanut butter on the end of a wooden spoon to get the results you are asking about.  Your dog might come along and try to lick the peanut butter or whatever other treat.  Good luck

Question 3

Does this come with the training book?  It shows it in website

Accepted Answer

It comes with a small booklet, but if this is your first exposure to clicker training, you would be better served with a more comprehensive book, or a video.   Clicker training is very effects, but timing is very important

Question 4

This sound fun, I'm not really understanding target training. Where might I get information?

Accepted Answer

Susan Garret on you tube has a clear and excellent video using this same tool and she gives the reasons for this targeting.  She trained dogs for movies among other things.  Stellar unique famous trainer.
