You are probably so right about chasing him being a game... I had not thought about that... I will try the treats to get him to come... Funny thing is I think he already knows what is for him and what is not... If he gets a dog toy he'll bring it to his bed... But when he grabs one of the kids things (without me saying a word) he'll take off running! Which in his mind i suppose starts the chase! Just one of the downsides of having such a clever dog! |
Teeka use to do the come chase me game! I stopped, clapped my hands, (gets her attention) turn to go in the house & she would slowly come back. I can now, say her name, clap my hands and she comes running at full speed! It will get easier!!! Good thing they are so adorable!
