    they won’t do it unless they feel like it

    Plenty of dogs like that too… Mine used to wait until I showed him a treat before doing anything I said, and if I didn’t have a treat he would just give me the funniest “Do you think I’m stupid?” look and go back to whatever he was doing.

      My wife’s dog won’t come when I call the dogs to take them outside until I walk into the room he’s in and tell him directly. Little shit.

      Had to take my Corgi to training to get her off the “treat based” rewards. The first 6 months we had her it was the only way to get her to do something.
