My plan is to use the cheese as an extra, extra special reward for when I take Max out in the neighborhood (his kingdom) and he doesn't bark at dogs or his other favorite triggers. I started tonight by giving him 1 tiny shred of mozzarella/provolone that I had in the fridge. It doesn't take much to please him.
