Way to go Phoebe, what a clever girl, we are working on some of those with Elliot too, its great fun, I love doing clicker training with him, and he sooo enjoys it, Brid, how did you teach shake?

This is how I did it.
Get the dog into a sit.
Place the treat beside his nose.
he should instinctively lift his paw to get the treat.
Reward him as soon as he lifts the paw in any way.
He'll just get better and better from there.

Thanks Brid, we'll get working on that one, does Pippa do any tricks? I'm working with Millie on leave it/take it at the moment, hmmmm she loves to take it though, not a bit keen to leave it

Pippa can sit, stay, leave it (struggling!) , turn and I just got her into a Down the other day!!
