Those puppies are SO darn cute!!! How much fun you must be having.
Tinka went to her 2nd class tonight and she gets to move up to level 2 next week! Yippee!!! I stopped at Burger King on the way home and got a Whopper Jr. and let her a few tiny bites of the meat for her reward. I love Whoppers... I don't eat them very often at all but I have loved them since I was a kid.
Susie - it's ok to use treats at first and then as they learn, you quit using them. To pass to level 2, Tinka had to do the simple commands without any treats and it wasn't a problem even though we use them for training at first.
How is our little Tink doing now a days? Any further problems at all?
