Sawyer gets a trainer - YorkieTalk.com Forums

At 2 oclock today, I have a trainer coming to my home I think to train me. I need the help for sure. I can get Sawyer to sit, for a second, lay down for 2 seconds, and potty on the pads, as long as I keep my throw rugs put away. He won't come when called either, he just looks at me like for sure! This baby is the best thing in my life; but a dog trainer I'm not evidently. Wish me luck, I will let you know how it goes.

First visit over, and I loved it!! So many things Sawyer was doing I thought were for different reasons, not because he was trying to be in control; I was wrong. dianne never was forceful or agressive with him at all; she just with held attention, I couldn't believe the change in his attitude. She has a recipe for treats that she makes with ground turkey or chicken, oats, and paramesan cheese that Sawyer loved so much. I have 5 more lessons to come, and I have homework to do all week. I am so excited, she really gave me good insight into my little imp. I will let you know as he progresses.

I'm so glad it went well! I need one of those "dog whisperer" type trainers for Mr. Biggs. Or should I say for me? lol. I'm definately not good at withholding attention, I've tried but I just can't resist his sweet little face! Let me know if things keep going well with the trainer! I just might have to get one then...
