I've even tried playing with her with her toy rope and rewarding and praising her when she does the position but she just isn't GETTING it. I've been trying to work on this for days now. I know she isn't dumb, I was able to teach her all her other tricks in significantly less amount of time (I think 'paw' took like... three tries haha) and this is so not like her. Dammit
I'm sorry she isn't getting it...

Micki is the only one in the house that refused to learn to Hide his eyes...I tried FOREVER to try to get him to do it...he just won't. Oh I forgot, Kyra knows how to Bow too but it took her much much longer...I was getting really frustrated that she wasn't getting the idea and a couple of months later I tried to teach her again and she caught on really fast! Don't give up...just keep working on it, you aren't going to get results immediately.
