A tiny brag

Not sure if this is the right place, but sure someone will remove it if not.
But thinking how I said to esmed that I was sure she could each monty to count, I decided to give Bruce ago.

As i didn't want him barking, I have spent the last three days teaching him to count to two...

I say Bruce ''one two'' and I have taught him to tap it on my hand with his foot, by picking up his foot and repeating ''one two''....today he's been doing it on his own.

So pleased with him.....he got a 2 bonios tonight as a treat (doesn't usually as they give him sloppy poos...he was so chuffed

Sloppy poo run tomorrow then

Brill! Have taught Rio colours, so another trick for you to try. She can pick out her red, yellow and blue rubber ring toys. Will try the counting one too!

Thanks for that idea. I'll give him another week or two then go to three. Bruce is the ''listener'' so I think he'll catch on.
Reah's good at finding her coat......does that count

Yea, I think bonios will have to change to cream crackers (he loves them) as i have had my first walnut whip this morning already
Next step teach him to do it for praise only.....

Atta boy, Bruce.
Before long you'll have mom trained to give you a Bonio for every tap - and I reckon you could count up to a hundred!
