That’s a start. I’ll have to get pics of my dogs removing treats from my lips. It was an adventure teaching CAP that trick while still keeping my nose and chin attached.
Bree can take stuff -very gently- from between my lips. Don’t know that I trained her to do it so much as she was just always there and ready to do it and one day it happened.
Jeeez. Just tried it and was rat-packed! I was Frenched by a Westie and had my nose bitten off by a Shit-zu!!! Did I mention the nasty taste of those gourmet cat-shit-smelling Beggin’ Strips?! At least this post …though physically harmful to me…did no psychological damage like your flower photos usually do…for that I thank you, Pam.
We don’t give any dog treats anymore, either people food (veggies, fruits, nilla waffers, etc) or I make the treats myself with dog treat recipes and people food.
I remember Tamitha Freemen. Harvey says: “She’s got beautiful puppies”.
"Lord, keep our servicemen and women safe, whether they serve at home or overseas. Hold them and their families in your loving hands and protect them as they protect us."

But training a dog to do it? No, thanks!

Ohhh… that statement is tantamount to forcing me to post another one…!
And yeah, dog treats taste like something that fell off a dead deer carcass after a couple of weeks… LOL!

Woo Hoo Daisy! Big, big step!
The puppers were taking Nilla wafer pieces from my lips this weekend and I am happy to report that I still have two (lips and dogs).

See? Nilla wafers!! That’s the kind of food to use! Sounds good right now, as a matter of fact… for me, not the dogs.

I don’t blame you; have you read the labels on that stuff? Nasty!!

Yep. Wouldn’t want to feed that to an animal that eats cat crap and drinks from the toilet…

I love my dogs too, but that breath…
8. September 2009 at 10:12 pm
When a dog is on a raw diet their breath is fresh. I got tired of wrangling chicken necks, but may go back to it…

Spoiled doggies! And happy owners. Great combo.

Hooray! All good things with time.

Yep! Better every day!
