Unfortunately, I have the same situation. "Drop it" never worked and so I had to resort to treats. I hated having to do that, but I had to. I tell her to "make a trade" and she'll drop whatever she's got because she knows she's getting something in return. And I have to say that even though she still does this, it's not as common. I figured it would get worse because she'd want treats, but it actually got better.
