She is almost 9 months, and she'll do it every once in awhile, and bring straight back, on variable distance. she is very consistent when we do it in the kitchen, because it is the only choice, treats don't work because she is so food motivated as soon as she sees them she drops what she is carrying and just wants the food, ive tried hidden food but once she knows it is there, she is done. I do think i praise too early though, that is a good point to wait until she has it, should i be waiting until she is moving or just when she has a good hold?
