:thanks: for the advice Eco Worrier, I did try to start from the beginning, and he did a second or maybe two max, and I clicked and treated each time. But he got bored in two minutes and just lay down and looked at it, then me and then touched it with his nose, but found it too boring to stand up. :rolleyes: I know you are meant to end the sessions on a high and keep them short (never do more than 5-10 minutes), but didn't know what to do when he lay down! I did start then throwing it down the kitchen for him to return and he seemed to enjoy this, the large thud of the dumbell on the wooden floor and returned it eagerly dropping it with a louder thud about 1-2 feet away from me. :D It was funny but not quite what I was trying to teach him. Will try again with him just holding it for even a second and just for less than a minute to stop him getting bored. If you have anymore advice, please do pass it on, think I am going to need all the help I can get! |
