Does your dog listen attentively inside the quiet living room, but instantly turn completely deaf the moment you step outside into the park? Distractions like squirrels, passing cars, and other dogs easily break their concentration.

Target Training as the Ultimate Anchor

Target training and eye-contact games create a powerful psychological anchor between you and your dog. By teaching your dog that paying attention to you yields the highest rewards, their focus remains locked on you regardless of outdoor distractions.
