Hmmm...when are the auditions again (well, der, I guess I can look on the first page ) The judges won't be able to resist him, hes such a hunk And I'm sure they'll be impressed no matter what you do with him, hes so young still and such a smartie.

What have you been trying to teach him? I know that Jack is extremely food motivated and out of the three (holding something, bowing or waving) getting him to hold something was the easiest. There isn't really a way that he can rush it, it might teach him a little patience too But Jack is the same way, if I try to use a toy as a reward only he will not try very hard and is very lazy about everything but as soon as I get some food..poof..whole different dog, lol. Good luck to you and Kaige and make sure you let us know how the auditions go!!
