I'm using both kibble and lamb roll. The kibble is of higher value to Maximo than it would be for most dogs, but the lamb roll is even better -- perhaps it is too much. What do you use with Uni?
Maximo also responds very well to praise and happy dance celebrations. I practiced with him outside today with distractions and he did very well with
quiet, sit, stay, and come. Although he was on a short leash, this was a major accomplishment considering a man he dislikes was to the left and a Husky was to the right of us, both within close range.
