Any ideas would be welcome thanks sandi, buster and robin Gracie aka White Bullet Feb 12, 2012 at 14:18 • Ellen (Connecticut) Post 5309    Re: any ideas I taught Gracie when she was a pup. She is not treat trained but when I would have her hold stay and walk around the house for a few minutes I did give her something. I have no idea how you train a dog if it is older. I'd have the trainer come over. They usually know just what to do.
