The cower part concerns me.
We used a shaker bottle (like a pill bottle with a penny in it) to learn come. They associate the sound with a treat, then with the word COME. These all sound similar to techniques we used in classes but the tuning fork thing is just an odd twist. I am glad it's working but I think it's probably unnecessary.
