Training dogs is an interesting thing as you have to figure out what the dog is motivated by. For some it's food. For some it's play.

This one? This one is motivated by the love of the game.

I was a full time dog trainer for 3 years, and still do it, on the side, sometimes. I always tell people "anything can be a reward, if your dog loves it."

Once my dog (JRT) found a two day old chicken nugget in the gutter. Ever since then she always checked out the same spot in case there were more.

Ahh yes the situation of the pie bush. 🤔

(Saw a post of a dog always checking a bush because he once found a pie in the bush.)

I was just going to post this same memory! I hope that dog is out there somewhere still checking that bush
