[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 530911, member: 11791"] Donna... it's a well-known dog-training approach, and the only one that's recommended for this stuff. While you're waving that "cookie" around, you also say "drop it" (which they do...), and then tell them how good they are while you "reward" them for dropping it. EVENTUALLY, they may catch on, if you are consistent with the "drop it" while they are in the act of dropping it... After a while, you shouldn't have to "wave" the cookie... but they will still need one. Leaving some really "good" thing the found... requires something at least as good. [/QUOTE]
