I've been working on a new trick with Triss this week and I think she's finally getting it!

I have a cloth pouch I put treats in. I'm trying to get her to bring me the pouch when I throw it. (Kind of a prelude to 'fetch')

At first, I had to get her to associate the bag with treats. Then she started pushing it towards me. And finally she picks it up and drops it in front of me. YAY!
