Accidental double post, saving for later
Today is day 16 of training my little piggy, and I couldn't be more proud!
After about a week of little to no progress, I think it has clicked. She will now stand on her hind legs about 25% of the time... ON COMMAND. Without any food bribes, hand gestures, etc. Just the word. I'm so happy! Of course, there won't be 100% success in the beginning, but we're getting there.
I think a key element is the environment. Up until a few days ago, I had been holding training sessions
For my first few blog entries, I'll post my progress in training my little piggy, Hershey.
Today is Day 2 of training her to "jump" (stand on her hind legs) and I've noticed a little progress. She seems to stand up and grab her parsley more quickly than yesterday when I hold it above her. I think she's starting to realize that when I say "jump" and hold veggies above her head, she needs to stand up to get them.
I ordered a training clicker on Amazon,
