The biggest one is drop or give. I've always taught this to all my dogs from the get-go. Using a low value item, I trade them for a high value reward. This has always assured me that my dogs will give up anything they have. It can be a life-saver.

There are other very good tips and observations, so if you have itunes, an ipod, or can get to their website, I recommend giving it a chance.

Yes - I agree as well. "Leave it" works for anything really, if Ahi is being a bit to rough with the Shibas we tell her to "Leave it" and she stops.
