I have taken Bud to puppy classes and then just worked with him myself.
He learns very fast. He can sit, stay, down, roll over, walk by me and sit
when I stop and continue when I continue. He comes when asked to
and can now do the crawl. All I have done is use his kibble (so he doesn't get
extra calories). After he catches on I give him less and less each time, therefore he does not expect it all the time. When I slap my palm he knows
to fetch his toy for catch. On the count of 1,2,3 he will sit up and beg.
We have done all this just playing for 1/2 hr every morning before I get
showered for work. Just have fun and forget all the do this, don't do that unless you have a problem dog. Were talking about a little dog not a
large one who needs strict obiedence to make it easier to handle him/her.
These Yorkies just love a challenge and they really enjoy learning everything
you can throw at them. Just have fun.
