Cooper learned a new trick!
Coop learns a new trick! from Maggie Marton on Vimeo.
While he learned it quickly, not every session went swimmingly. (BTW – Does anyone else have an issue with their dogs chewing on their cat’s scratching post? Or is this a problem unique to Coop?)

With a clicker you can teach dogs to do anything! Cooper is a fine looking lad.
Maggie
Agreed!! I love using the clicker because the sky’s the limit!

Oh what a hoot he is. Something about them that you just got to love. He is soo smart, but then I think all of them are, if just given a loving chance in life. Thanks for the video today, Maggie.
P.S. We shouldn’t overlook the fact that Newt played a perfect straight man role.
Maggie
He is so smart! Sometimes I think TOO smart! 🙂 So, the truth is, Newt was fine with it for about 5 repetitions. Then she punched him in the face. Oops. However, we started clicking and treating her, and she is MUCH more accepting of being the target now!
Bren
OMG! Cooper is so adorable! Love it!
Jen
Oh my gosh, what a great trick! Cooper is so smart! And Newt is so patient!

Well, I don’t have a cat…so no. If I did, the problem would be with the dogs chewing on the actual cat! 🙂

That was great! Those two are so cute together.
I’d say Cooper is unique for sure! 🙂

My cat chews on his scratching posts! Yup, unravels it and chews away!
