this is *wendy*, a fellow-USA-apdt-nik, of All Good Dogs in Texas -
MobileMe Gallery

another apdt-nik gave her a tip:
WATCH her body-language - she turns to the table prior to her clicks;
not only does that throw her timing slightly, the TURNING becomes the *predictor* of the treat -
not the > click! < this muddies the dogs comprehension.

here is *betty laurin* teaching via back-chaining:
YouTube - Betty's TLC Dog Training Back Chaining Put Toys Away.mpg.wmv
she says:
*the fastest way to teach this trick to a green dog is thru back-chaining.*
this is also *bettys* first! You tube video upload! :thumbup:
AND - her Goldens very-first session; she *learned* put the ball in the basket in under-60-secs.
watch for latent learning just before she groks the concept.

happy training,
--- terry

I had a go at this for a while need to work on it again. The way I did it was get him to fetch a toy and held a treat over the toy box so he dropped it to get the reward. Built the command in. It worked pretty well

Love the second video - great illustration of backchaining
