    It's Working! You can teach an old dog new tricks

    I've been working with Dasher and here's a pic. I swear the basket is off the ground. It's just that the handle is so long. Also, to get him to take things, I have to pry his mouth open. Is there any way to just get him to accept it without me having to do that? If it's not food, he's not interested.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Awww, what a cutie. If he's so food motivated, you could just dab a bit of peanut butter on the handle of the basket. Or you could just take a piece of chicken and smear it on the handle. As long as it has a smell, Dasher should be attracted to it.

    LOL. I did try the peanut butter on the hand. He just licked it off I'm still working with him. He's got a ways to go before he'll just hold something but he's come a long way. I'm really pleased with him because he learned this pretty quickly.
