HER new trick!


Daisy...............Bella

Bella and I have been training HER.
Every night Bella goes into the garden, finds a frog and harrasses it until it makes a high-pitched, clicking sound. (She hates that.)
When I hear the sound I run and stare at HER.....sometimes giving my attention growl.
Now Bella can only be enticed away from the frog with a treat.  So SHE starts yellin', "Wanna a treat? (or cheese)"
Bella leaves the frog and we all get a treat while she shuts the door.
Took awhile, but SHE's finally got it!

  11. Hello, ladies! We're just catching up after being away over Christmas. First question: aren't a lot of your frogs poisonous? Hope the one you're using for training isn't. Second question: how did your zoo-zoo pet last so long? If we got one of those, it would be in little pieces by now - inside Jed's tummy. Yours just looks a little muddy from playing in the yard. Must be tough little critters. Finally, our paper holiday cards arrived after we left, so they won't be mailed until tomorrow. So look for your card probably sometime around Valentine's Day. Sorry!
