Free Shaping a Silly Trick

There's a contest for a picture of a dog sitting in the most unusual place.  Has to be safe and the dog has to get up there by themselves.  The prize is a book I want from Australia, that I wouldn't be likely to pay for.

So knowing Gimme loves to free-shape, I decided to set her on it.  My goal is a picture of her sitting on the copier while its cranking out a picture of her lovely tushy.  It took 22 treats to get her to get into a chair and from there to the copier stand and then on top of the copier and sitting.  Then I turned it on and off a couple times while giving her treats to get her used to the noises.  Even did a copy while she was sitting on it. She wasn't bothered in the least.  At one point she looked down at the copier bed in the cutest way - if I can catch that moment on film its a sure thing.

Naturally she found that so rewarding that as soon as I was done she leaped from the floor to the top of the copier, just in case I wanted to give her more treats.  I'll have to get that picture and then never reward that behavior again!  Its going to take longer to clean up around the copier so the picture has an uncluttered background that it took to get her up there.  Have I mentioned that she is part monkey?
