Tiff 36 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 make a game of it, teach the dog separately to #1 come when called and #2 retrieve its prize, and then reward it when it does either or both of these things ... if it knows you are just going to take it away and give it a telling off, why WOULD the pup come to you or give its prize to you? Good luck, pups are trying, which is why I hate them lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radioclash 0 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Thanks working on all the above,found if she has something to carry a stick, feather, ball, less inclined to scavenge.When she becomes bored carrying the item she will dig a hole and try bury it.
