Leave It

Sol has mastered the sit command, so we have started teaching her "leave it" because that is a completely foreign concept to her. We have completed a few training sessions so far and they have gone really well.

We cover the treat with our hand, to indicate "leave it" and then we tap twice next to the treat to let her know when it is OK to "take it".

Here is a little video of a training session. There are a few sits in there as well.

How beautiful is that.  Who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks?  Sol is so precious I wish I could hug her.

GOOD GIRL SOL!!
Man, I need someone to come and teach Sofie. She can hear just fine, she just hates being told what to do. a TOTAL diva.
But Sol is so smart!

Awwwww!  Granny Grunts is a smart one:)  I wouldn’t be able to teach Hooie or Tina that one, that’s for sure.

This is wonderful to watch!  She’s such a beautiful girl, and she makes me laugh!  At one point, she seems to think “Corrine’s lost her mind if she thinks I’m gonna wait.”  But then she does!!!

I love the way you turned your pool table into a private training spot.  And I hear a little bark from below from someone who obviously thinks they’d be happy to exchange a few tricks for treats!

SOL, What a good girl!!!  I am SOOOO proud of you…and Corrine, hell of a job with finding successful modes of training the precious ol’ gal.  This is truly awesome to watch!!!
