Stay Danny Stay

A while back, one of Danny's trainers taught us this trick to calm him when he's scurrying around. It's supposed to work whether or not there's food involved, but Danny is a slave to his stomach so thus far it only works when he has some sort of incentive.



He's chained up in these pics cos the floor was getting cleaned and after his incident, the last thing we want is Danny lapping up soapy water. (Yes, Danny, it smells of roses but I don't think your liver can take another blow!) But the trick works when he's free too.


Seeing he was such a good boy with just one cracker, we decided to up the ante...




On a seperate occasion, I managed to surround him with crakers and make him stay for a good 3 minutes. Yay! Success!


The down side is you need to keep an eagle eye on him or the temptation is just too great. Ah well...it's still an improvement!

He's one of the cutest puppies I've seen. You sure took a lot of effort in taking care of it. Congratulations. All the effort is worth it.
