Here's a great game to play with your Yorkie I saw this on Animal Planet and deceided to give it a try.
I am always looking for new things to teach Buddy so he does not
get bored with our training.
It's called "Find It".
I took some of his kibble that was left behind from breakfast and hid
two pieces of it while I made him sit. Not far from him so he could see
me. I told him to "Find It'. He looked at me and I had to encourage him
then he knew what I ment. He did find it and then we started again.
This time I hid it a little farther. That was yesterday. This am I had
him sit and hid the kibble in another room. I told him to Find It and
off he went. He sniffed around and was very excited understanding
there was food somewhere. LOL Took him a couple of minutes but he
found it. He seemed to really enjoy the challange and we will continue
and make it harder as we go. You can do this with food, treats or even
a surpise toy from time to time.
Try it your yorkie might enjoy it too. |
