Mark, I applaud you for not doing the "food fad thing".  Finding 
something else that is a motivator for our dogs is awesome! I 
think one reason we tend to use food as a reward is our own use 
of food or drink as a reward for ourselves.  (This is just my 
opinion).  But think about this.  We have a great day at work, 
get a raise, or whatever.  Often we go out to dinner to 
celebrate.  Or we have a bad day at work, and we head for the 
nearest vending machine for that candy bar.  Yes, food is quick, 
and effective, but I for one don't want to encourage that food 
drive too much.  Thanks for a good idea, Mark.    Peace,    Debby
