So our first homework assignment for the training classes I have Woobie & Indie enrolled in at the SPCA was to find a Level 10 (the bestest!) high value treat our pet responds to. Woobie is so tough to get food motivated, I have evil plans to starve him tomorrow so he'll eat ANYTHING tomorrow night during class (only half kidding!). So I went to the store today and bought liverwurst, smoked, smelly cheddar, romano cheese and made a batch of turkey meatballs. He's sensitive to anything with feathers but I needed something that would be low fat and do double duty for Indie's class on Sunday. So, I'm testing these high value treats on Woobie and no matter how small I made the treat, he'd hold it in his mouth and slink away to a hidden corner to mouth it for several minutes before actually eating it!!! Uhm, well.... I hope he gets the hint to eat it when he's on leash and in class! Sheesh, this dog is such a training challenge!!! I've met Virginia Broitman thru a local rescue and I'd love to give him to her for a couple weeks and say "Here! Make a You Tube video about THIS DOG!!!"
30 lbs. by Christmas, down 4 lbs., 26 to go!!!
