The day after Thanksgiving, when many still have pots and pans soaking, is a good time to share this video of Lilly putting away her dog toys. You’ll notice that she holds them down with her foot. That’s because she often puts her toys away with such enthusiasm that they fly out of the basket. No reward for that, so Lilly learned to make sure they stay put. Therefore, the foot bonus action became part of the dog trick.
How clever is Lilly? I love watching dogs put their toys away! Don’t know why, it just fascinates me.
I love how she holds the toy in the basket with her paw. What a smarty!
Lilly looks so proud of herself at the end.
Thats fantastic! I love how she barks at the end – like she’s letting you know it’s time for a treat. 🙂
OMD (oh my dog) how she loves to put away her toys! I need to work on that task with Norman and Betsy.
I love it! We did a shaping exercise with Dusty’s toy basket in the hopes of teaching him to put his toys away, but we haven’t gotten there yet. Lilly must be really smart! 🙂
