Often it generalizes later on so that they will willing approach and check out “scary” things, rather than spooking and running the opposite direction! I find it's best to start with easy, not scary things and then expand targeting to scary things later on.

Or is the Autumn just experimenting and seeing what she can touch to get a reward? Either way it is a good game to play! I have heard it used for dogs that have people anxiety. Learning to touch strangers hands I guess is an ice breaker. Do you have a cue that initiates it? Or is the Autumn just experimenting and seeing what she can touch to get a reward?
