Training Target Stick with built-in clicker, telescopic 14 to 65 cm - Trixie
A target stick with clicker to train dogs, cats, rabbits or birds
The Trixie Target Stick combines two training tools: a target stick and a clicker.
The animal learns to follow or touch the ball at the end of the stick with its nose.
The clicker button makes a consistent sound to mark the right action.
The stick extends from 14 to 65 cm: it works as an extension of your arm.
Handy for working with small animals without bending down: rabbit, budgie or cat.
The tip is soft on the animal's nose and easy to see.
A belt clip with an adjustable nylon cord keeps the stick within reach; a quick-release fastener lets you detach it.
Materials: plastic and metal.
A booklet with training tips is included. Colour depends on stock.
Description
How to use the Target Stick
Hold the ball near the nose: as soon as the animal touches it, click and give a treat.
Then move the stick away little by little: the animal learns to follow it.
This basis can then be used for tricks, courses or to guide the animal.

The rules of good training
The click comes at the exact moment of the right action, the treat follows straight away.
One session a day, only a few minutes long.
Break each exercise into small steps.
Never click to call the animal: the click always announces a reward.
ℹ️ Good to know : The jackpot (a big reward now and then, about every thirty clicks) keeps the animal motivated (advice from the Trixie instructions).
⭐ Our team's tip : Start somewhere calm, indoors, with very small treats. When the animal touches the ball every time, add a word such as "touch".
