First Fail

 The first trick I wanted to teach my dog was to dance. So the first thing I did was get out the treats. I used Purina's Beggin Strips.  The second Sophie saw them she started jumping on me. To start the trick I waved the strip above her head in a circular motion, but she kept moving backwards. So I tried again. The second time I did it she started jumping. So I tried one more time. I put the treat above her head, then she started jumping and growling cause she was frustrated with me. As she was jumping she bit me trying to get to the treat. I got a scratch in between my thumb and pointer finger. In conclusion, don't hold the treat too high up.

   Have you ever wanted to find new talents but never had the time? Genius hour is a perfect way of doing that! I've been given the opportunity to find new talents within me, i'm so glad to be given this wonderful project in my English class.

  I've always wanted to do something with my dog, Sophie. I've always wanted to teach her new skills and help her develop talents. So I've decided to be a dog trainer for this project. I've already found some amazing tricks like dance, salute, and skateboard. I can't wait to get ready and teack my dog some tricks!
