Barry,no one said give treats 100% of the time and feed her treat after treat you have to remember this is a 6 month old who has a loooong way to go till she's fully trained
. I don't know what other people do in the way of treats but my treats are sometimes no more then a crumb, nothing that takes time to chew and get in to. Nothing of any amount where he neeeeeds the treat to perform ;). Now if someone is giving a half a bisquit or even a quarter, it's too much
. Food rewards are only suppose to be temporary and why would you continue to give a treat if the dog has the training down pat, doesn't make sense
Though I agree with some of the advice I never heard of your way of training that you discribed. I successfully raised 3 rotties and didn't have to train to the degree you mentioned. Is this a new way of training ;)?
angellove and MyRottie, time and patience and you will do fine :D.
