    That's brilliant! A dog determines what a reward is, and your other dog was it! Very cool!!!

    Seems so long ago I was doing that with Sparrow, now moving on to the 'big' dog class. It has made such a difference though now she is older.

    My key exercises are:
    Come
    Wait
    Hand touch
    and Watch Me

    Now we are nearly six month and progressing into harder stuff, especially those loooong stays.

    When you see people doing nothing with their pup until it is six months or more you think they miss out on so much:no:

    We are doing go outs to the stanchion, only about 4 feet, but he's learning to look, and then run to the cookie. Our scent work is simply tossing a handful of kibble into the grass with a "find it" ... and I'm doing a very simple choose to heel.


    About 5 mins at the most, as many behaviors as I can get, with 1\4 cup of kibble.
