Simply line up chairs back to back, crank up the sub-woofer and walk around the line of chairs with your dog on a lead. When the music stops, get your pooch to sit on the chair. Tip: use a tasty treat to help them along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can ditch the chairs, and just tell your dog to sit when the music stops. I&#8217;d recommend this version for old timers and mini breeds who would have difficulty jumping onto a chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Magic Cups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll need 3 cups, a ball and a dog that has an attention span greater than that of a tea spoon! Show your dog the ball and place it under one of the cups. Give them a shuffle, and encourage your dog to find the ball. Make sure you have plenty of treats at hand and reward him\/her with lots of praise. After a few rounds they&#8217;ll be a pawfessional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>CC Bear Edibles: Wellness Celebration Sundaes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The lovely Christine, founder &amp; owner of CC Bear Edibles, has let me in on a delicious Celebration Sundae recipe that&#8217;s perfect for a dog birthday party. It&#8217;s quick, easy, a breeze to clean up and is super healthy for you <i>and <\/i>your four-legged friend.
