Jeff,

When I had a pet, I taught him two commands, "go get it" and "bring, bring 
it". I didn't know about ;using food rewards. I just  used lots of praise 
and physical affection. Yes, it takes time. By the way, I taught my guide 
dog to, "give me five". I think I'll work on, "roll over".

Lisa and Bernie
