my new puppy doesn't like treats
Hello,
Five days ago I took home a soft coated wheaten terrier puppy. She is 9 weeks old. I am crate training her, and while I realize training takes time, I am having some difficulty. She likes being in her crate. She doesn't cry to get out, and she has fun playing with toys when she is in there. Also, I do not want to force her to go in her crate because I want her crate to be a totally positive experience. Sometimes I can lure her in with toys or food. This is proving more difficult though. She might put her front two feet in, but be reluctant to go in completely. My main problem is that I have not found any treat that she craves, or even likes. Many times I'll hold a treat right in front of her nose, and she will show absolutely no interest. While I don't want treats to be the primary basis of her training, it would help if I could use them to make her enter her crate. Does anybody else have experience with a puppy that does not like treats? Can anybody suggest something I might try? Thank you. |
