Hi all,
I have a quick question for all of you that use treats to help with training.
I have a 9 week old Border Collie named Turtle who is progressing very nicely, however, when I give him a treat for doing something good he becomes solely interested in finding more treats and it becomes very hard to get his attention back. He sniffs my hands and pockets but I don't like to say "no" because he had just completed a command to earn the treat in the first place.
Does anybody have any ideas of how to train my pup to keep his attention on me and to not get distracted by anything.
Regards
Mitch
