Sure enough, within a week or two of doing that just a few times a day, he started picking it up. The book also suggested making a sling to serve the same purpose, but I never had any luck with that. The leash idea seemed to work fine.
I'll have to try that! Knowing Chip, he'll try and bite the leash off... and Smokey... well... he'll just sit there and cock his head at me.
