CoBird - this DOES work! You have to be extremely consistent ... With Mogli, I always say that he trained me. I was just consistent and never gave up. I mean, this is pretty much the principle for teaching them "speak" ... find what makes them do it, and help them associate it with something different (the command).
Also, I've found that spending 10 or 15 minutes with them one night ... then just 5 or 10 the next few nights works better. Present information in smaller pieces for them. |
