It's good to teach speak, bc then they will understand "no speak" or "no bark"

The grass thing makes sense too. I forgot to mention that. Uni still does not like to roll over on anything other than carpeting, and even doesn't like to sit on the cold kitchen floor without a towel under her butt.
Lilo doesnt bark yet so is there any way to make her bark? Lol. I'm almost nervous that if she ever starts it won't end though. We did more training today in the grass and it's starting to pay off. We did some rolls and she just does it super fast but gets stuck on her back. Haha we were both so happy! She's catching on to the left and right but has one difficulty with drop it.
