A cow kick is a lash forwards. If he had turned his back to kick out with both heels I would not be convinced the time taken to position a kick in the belly would be helpful. The belly is also a vulnerable area.
Just saying.
Fair enough, wrong term used, rather than cow kick- maybe lashed out would be better. And response was instant with a nice slappy noise rather than some sort of power ninja kick (I am not a ninja and as said earlier soft as butter). I am happy that no harm was done and the response that I got has prevented further escalation of this behaviour, without affecting the build up of positive behaviour reinforced by the clicker.
