so, i have not really been actively trying to train Meadow to do anything, other than not be destructive.  i figured anything she learned she'd probably forget anyways, at least until her spay appointment... 

i was playing with Meadow and Michael earlier today.  Michael said her name and she came running from across the room.  i just stared at her.  i waited until she had run away again and then i said, "Meadow" in a completely normal tone.  she was sitting on my foot in a second flat.  we herded her into the other room, walked away.  tried it again.  she came running!  no treat necessary, just a hearty head rub and she was happy.  i really hope she retains this thru her surgery.  and now i'm thinking of other things we can teach her!  i also can't wait to show her off to my parents who think rabbits are more like goldfish than a dogs.

How exciting! My bunnies still don't respond to their name, but just to the sound of a treat bag Definitely continue to reinforce the behavior with treats, that will help her keep coming to her name.

My Bunny Burrow is full! Pringles & Toby, Daisy & Lola, and my senior citizens Hershey & Simba.
The piggies are back, add Brownie and Sweetpea to the mix.
