Now when he finds a rock(like he did today) I just say drop it or put it down and 90 percent of the time he drops it unless it's some kind of food lol |
I'm glad he's gotten better, that gives me hope lol.
I'll try showing her the treat and waiting for her to drop it, but I think she'll get fed up and run away.

That might work, Thanks.
Lola already brings me bad items if she wants something I'm eating. Like if I have ice cream she'll find a tissue or something and stand infront of me.
