So when you say mixing up the treats kept him more interested, @mary_hernandez, how often did you switch it up? I'm worried about my dog getting bored if I use the same thing every time, but I also don't want to overcomplicate it. Finding that balance seems key for the training to stick.

You said you felt like a fool, but honestly, was it that big of a deal? People who study that stuff get things wrong too. It's just a cool thing to learn, not a test you failed.

Wait, minimal? Have you actually tried a proper pull-up? That stuff is brutal.
