Sneeze yes if you can catch it and let me tell you it a hard one.... trying with a client dog that sneezes and I am going to give a clicker to her while I am working another skill soully to catch it and it alone. That my skill set still learning great timing. A great clicker person that not me can shape a sneeze... I still a baby clicker pesron.
Count you put a paw movement on a small hand cue and you say what 3 the 2 and you move you hand cue and the dog paws until you stop the cue.
I am ashamed is a little change from say your prayers where the dog puts it feet on your arm and tucks its head under your arm. or it can be a chair and it tucks it head between its leg.
Targeting is when you use a long stick called a target stick ( karen Pryors web site has them or use a wooden spoon) and the dog touches the end. with it you can teach a dog to go in and out and figure eight your legs and to pick it up and bring it back to you and put things in your lap. Follow the stick.
