| Help! My furbaby is NOT food motivated! I'm not sure what to do. Sammie is not food motivated at all and this is making any kind of training supremely difficult. I've tried cheese, tons of different types of treats, chicken, duck...nothing works past the first day or so and even then he's never been enthusiastic about it. He really investigates the treat I'm offering him before taking it from me. Any suggestions? |

| My Duke is not food motivated at all. But he will do anything for a ball. Instead of a treat, try a special toy. |

Maybe he is full. I found that when I took Teddy to class after breakfast, he never ate his rewards. So I cut back his food before class and he was very interested after that. Now that he grew up, he's a pig.
