Tomorrow I will try to find the video that shows you how to teach a dog to do that. It just sounds harder then what it is. I believe they used the clicker method and it is a faster method. once they learn that, some people advanced to them dropping a ball into a basketball net. -------Original Message------- From: Joan Croft Date: 02/28/11 01:44:56 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] two buddies!!! If someone perfects teaching the dog to put the toys back in the toybox…let me know…I would love that to happen! Dolly can bring me many toys by me asking her to bring me whatever. She is also very intent on finding what she wants. Some of her favorite toys she will look over the whole house, smell the pile of toys and will not play with anything else until she finds what she wants…but she can’t put her toys back in the right place either…DARN!

She sounds wonderful. If she is that tuned into human expressions, then she should be real easy to teach a lot of tricks. Should be fun and easy and she will enjoy it because she knows it makes you happy. Ever think of teaching her how to pick up her toys and put them in a basket? Or teach her to identify her toys and items by names? Dogs that show they can think for themselves, usually get those two tricks quickly. If she does, then you have a real winner and she will be able to learn a lot more before she reaches 18 months. The trick is for the human to train themselves first, so that they know how to teach it to the dog, lol!

She was 6 months old on Valentines day. I think the thing that amazes me most about Mable is her soft play with the littles...she loves to play but she tempers her level to meet theirs...I never have to worry about her getting too rough. She is so smart too...what an easy dog to train. She is so eager to please and is also 100% comic. If you laugh at something she does...she does it over and over just to see you laugh. Mable loves everyone...and all creatures....she is not afraid of anything but not too anxious either...you can see her thinking things through. I am amazed at her heart everyday...I am truly in love with her. Not barky...potty trained completely in less than a week...super easy dog!!

Madison is growing!! How much does Mable weigh? I saw a couple of Boston puppies last summer at our dog park and they were soooo cute! They were solid little dogs with lots of energy and just never seem to stop playing and take a break. They managed to keep all the other dogs on their toes, lol! <PEGGY&~3.GIF> -------Original Message------- From: Deanna Corey Date: 2/27/2011 8:26:52 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; boston-terriers-people@yahoogroups. com; [email protected]; Yorkie Views 2; [email protected] Subject: [Chihuahuas] two buddies!!!
