All you do is sit on the floor with treats. You put down a treat and when they go after it, say "leave it." When they leave it and make eye contact with you, praise them and give them a treat from your hand. (not the one on the floor) You can start with one treat on the floor and add some more as you progress. They learn it so fast! It's nice to have something different than NO all the time.  |
What an excellent idea! We are going to start working on that one!
