Anyone out there ever watch "The Dog Whisperer?" I find it interesting and hysterical at the same time. Today he is trying to help a young man who's little dog bites him a lot. lol
When he feeds the dog he has a ritual and says the dog won't eat if he does it any other way?? WTH?? You are the one who is trained man, not your dog! lol
It's like my two.
They are trained to receive a treat when the come inside from going potty outside! This started when I was trying to get Renniew to go outside more. She would never tell me when she needed to go out, was trained to pee on old tshirts in their room. IF she was already outside and had to go she would potty out there, but never got the idea of tell me to put her out. At the old house they had a dog door and it was easier for us both.
So now Chloe does tell me she needs out and for the majority of the time goes potty outside, as does Tequila. If it's raining hard, or during the night, I have fake grass pads in their room and they go on them. But mostly they go outside.
However, there are times they ask to go out, do not possibly go potty in that short a time, and still want a treat! lol They only get half to a fourth of one anyway, but I know I am the one trained.
