Try teaching him to hold it.

store the other day, sitting on my lap. He was wearing a red vest with patches 
saying “Service Dog in Training”.
  The manager asked me what kind of services my dog can do. My dog is a little 
Papillon.  He said he got a complaint from a woman about me having a dog with 
me.
  A cashier who often sees us in the store and loves to pet my dog as we go 
through saw the manager talking to me and asked what he said.
  I told her and she told me he was legally not supposed to ask those questions.
  I just ordered a DVD on how to train dogs for disabled people. I want to 
teach him to pick up my typing pencil/cuff when I drop it.
   
  Anyone else try teaching a little dog?
  I don’t know the steps. He can jump onto my lap, but always drops it before 
he climbs up. How do I teach him? Do we just lift him up, then reward him? Or 
try and hold it to his mouth?
  Any tips welcomed…
