Challenge time...

Ok, so since I was at it and never did post a "feeding time" vid, I thought I'd do so now. This is about the full length of time I've worked Lillie up to, I wouldn't expect much more from her.Dinner time - YouTubeYogi, on the other hand, really struggles with food, it's an ongoing issue and one we work really hard with. So this is actually our third try, he nailed it. But he got in trouble for jumping the gun with some pork roast about 30 minutes prior... I won't post that video, there was a good amount of swearing involved.Challenge - YouTube

Good work! I liked the use of place too.

Oh yeah, that's their "place" for meal times and every time they come in from outside. They sit and wait to get wiped down if it's raining or snowy and/or until their feet are dry.

The only part of this that would be a "challenge" for me would be making myself another sandwich.

The dual drool bubbles were incredible! I was dying laughing. Tessa isn't a huge drooler, so we don't see much of that.

I feel u on that one. Another great reason to have a place command in place. We just got our first real snow of the season (about 3-4 inches).

Nice. I like the twist to the "challenge". Salute. I don't know what you're eating but it made me hungry. Time for an egg sandwich;)

That is funny! I just think it was a coincidence.
I don't think it was coincidence, it was very subtle, automatic communication between the two of you. That's something you only get by constantly working with your dog. I think that's where people miss the boat sometimes; by just looking for a way to fix "A" problem without realizing that their overall relationship with their dog is reinforced 24/7. The more you put in, the more you get back.

Thank you for pointing that out.

Love everyone's videos. Here's mine. I used stinky salmon jerky because, let's be honest here, I don't have any human food in the house, lol. I wasn't sure what to expect because I don't typically leave the room, much less with all three of them. So I just barely hid around the corner. They're always a little more tempted when there's competition. Atlas, the brindle, is my doofus, and if anyone is going to break a stay, it's going to be him every time. Challenge X 3 - YouTube

Nice job! I just went around the corner for a second, myself, in my video. Yogi can only maintain for so long.

I meant to ask you after an earlier video and forgot, but what kind of critter do you have in the terrarium?

Oh, and more than one dog definitely raises the stakes. I think they are so torn between obeying and anticipating if one of the others is going to break their stay and get it all, lol.
