Oh? You have a treat? Gimme. No? I'll just poo on you and fly away.

Apollo: Peach-faced Lovebird
^^

Apollo seems completely uninteresting in training. I've used the clicker, and the first day he would jump up and look around for a treat when I clicked it for a treat. Then I was able to start the first steps of target training, and he was into it for a while. Next day, he hardly responds to the target stick, when he hears the clicker he just sits there and stares at me. I don't know if he forgot everything he learned, or if he's just expecting the treat without doing anything -.-

ohyea and here's a picture of him

Unfortunately I think you'll have to start from scratch and reteach him that click means treat and just treat him for doing nothing, don't move quickly just have sessions of just click treat repeats for a few days if not a week, then slowly start introducing the training aspect again. Animals are survival beings they won't do anything unless they get something out of it
