Let's see, advice, advice, well, I agree with binka nugget and shelteez2 and well, just have fun and yes give LOTS of praise! Also, string cheese is what i use for training cause you can hold it in your mouth til you give it to the dog. Cheese isn't bad for dogs. or u get little cookies, but they have to be able to eat them fast because you can't take up the trainer's time. lol, i learned that the hard way..hee hee. that's all.
