My daughter is teaching our Lab to get water out and throw away the empties but it is a slow process:sqeyes:
I am in the beginning stages of teaching her to get a beer from the frisge. My dog trainer showed me some techniques to do this,,,,, lets see how this works out.

I got her to ring a bell for the door to go potty outside and thats what incouaged me to do this.
Hot dog, lots of Hot Dogs.
As soon as I master it. I will post the steps.
I tryed that with my cats, but all they do is think its a play toy.
I started teaching my dog how to deliver beer out of the fridge a few years back. She was learning fast and I have no doubt she would have mastered all the steps in short order, but somewhere in the training process a few things dawned on me...
1) Although it is a cool party trick, I didn't really want to drink from a can that was in the dog's mouth.
2)Teaching a dog who loves food and beer how to open the fridge is possibly the worst idea ever? ...The way I was doing it, you to tie a towel on the handle and then remove it when you don't want the dog to get in there. This probably works ok for a lot of dogs, but my dog, after pulling the door open with the towel a few times, decided to just try prying open the bottom of the door from the edge with her snout like any other door, instead of pulling on the towel.:jawdrop: She never managed to open the door like this, but I think she would have eventually if I kept focusing her interest on the fridge...anyway when she started doing this I stopped teaching, because I could see the need for a padlock in the near future.

Now that is some funny shit.
...and brings up some serious consequences later on.

Very True... If max were to continue with this training,,, The dog could start drinking... which could lead to drunk posting.... at this point she/he could start posting imaginary other dogs..
