Stupid dog tricks

The name says it all.  However, you have to admit, it is a huge distraction to have one of your favorite duck treats on your paw and not be allowed to eat it.  We started practicing this last night and he's already got the concept.  Now we are doing it with all three dogs at the same time (film at 11).  Lindsey, our trainer says this trick is important because if someone drops food you don't want your dog to eat, this trick will help teach him restraint.  We'll see about that!
