We do cut her treats up really small - and we've used everything from cheese to hotdogs/ham/chicken/etc to 10 different kinds of storebought treats... We even tried peanut butter and the spray cheese. Hah!
She's really not big in to her toys either. She does chew on bones, but her thrill is playing with the cats which is way too much distraction for trying to train her.
We have tried with the treats several different approaches:
We start with put her in sit, then:
Put the treat by her nose and move it down, then in/out;
Put the treat by her nose and pull it up beside her neck;
Put the treat under my leg...
Though with her limited appeal of the treats, she never goes all the way. She'll follow it, then decide she's not interested and walk off.
