And, she is happy to report that it has been an overwhelming success. She now simply deposits the bone in my husband's lap, or drops it on his foot (as a mild correction for losing focus), and he holds it for her. No more need to chase it around the rug or prop it against the chair leg. No more getting it covered with hair as it slides across the kitchen floor. No more losing it under the couch or loveseat. Just nudge and drop into the outstretched hand.

Chase is kind of a know-it-all, but nonetheless wants to know if easterners have some training tricks that the desert dogs don't know. Please put him on the Webinair list.
ReplyDeleteGood girl Elli! Does she train with positive reinforcement? I hope she is more coordinated than I with the clicker LOL.
