Yesterday I decided to get the skateboard out to see what Rumple made of it. I didn’t expect him to do it, it took Millie months to get, but thought he might take to it more if he’s exposed to it while he’s young.
He went to it straight away and with a little encouragement stood on it! I praised him for this and moved the board. He didn’t mind me dragging him across the room on it! When he got off, I encouraged him back on and he offered 3 paws on the skateboard. This is exactly what I want to rewarded him for it. We kept repeating this and then I started to move it slightly. When he moved his leg and out it back on the ground, I rewarded him. This is difficult as it’s easier for him to Out his paw on the skateboard with the other. It didn’t take long for him to grasp though and this was where we were when we finished the session yesterday! https://youtu.be/x7-Z-KWjfaQ I can’t believe how well he took to it!
