It looks like Lily's Report behavior is well on the way to being ready to take on the road.

"It's not just about the 'person', but most importantly the scent, which must take the highest place on the cue heirarchy, above behaviors and orientation."

Target Stick vs Scent Stick

A target stick is any stick-like object that a trainer assigns significance in training for the purposes of training body touches.

A scent stick is what we call a target stick that has a container for holding odor/scent for purposes of training a dog to target its nose on the training odor/scent and classically pairing the odor with the touch behavior (for precision) and for building the locate-report chain.

~ Jennifer White

NOTE: We are training Lily as though for Seizure Alert, using the tea bag as a substitute for the seizure scent and documenting as though we were using seizure scent. We are following all the protocols for Monitor and Locate.
