Been teaching today. My Labradors are a little fatter and I am much happier to have counted ten fingers! Thank you so much!

Another question. One gal. I put her in sit stay when I put my shoes one. When I bend over she always breaks and licks my face. Gets excited because we are going out. Would love for her to just stay and put my shoes on without having my face wash also. Ideas?

I highly recommend Susan Garrett's Crate Games video
to teach dogs self control. Learning in a crate makes it so much easier for the dog to understand that self control yields rewards. You can buy the video
