Default Developing respect and partnership

I agree the dog should be rewarded with what he absolutely goes nuts for. Avery loves treats when we are in low distraction environments but prefers a toy when in high distraction environments. The toy we use in high distraction is a toy that he gets to play with when I want to play with him, he has several toys he can play with whenever but his training toy is special. You've got to find what works best for you and sometimes that's different than what a trainer says.
