Start phasing the food lure out once your dog consistently responds to the treat and command word. Instead of holding a treat in your hand, just use your fingers to signal your dog to duck when you give the command. Hold your hand in front of your dog and lower it to the floor just as you did with the food lure. This will teach your dog to respond to the hand signal instead of the treat. During the process of phasing out treats, you can still offer them as a reward. Instead of using them to lure your dog into a ducking position, don't show it a treat until after it's ducked. Use your hand signal, say the command word, then give your dog the treat after it successfully ducks. Be patient if your dog doesn't duck without the food lure. Go back to practicing with treats a few times, then try offering a treat only after a successful duck. When you started training, you gave your dog a reward as soon as it got into the duck position. As it begins to master the command, count to one before giving it a treat. Then add a second to the count each time you practice. Withholding the treat will extend the amount of time it stays in the proper position and help wean it off of a food reward. It will also teach your dog to work more for each treat. Eventually, substitute the treat reward with enthusiastic verbal praise. Try to sound even more excited and over the top with your praise than before, especially when you start omitting the treat. With some practice, your dog should be able to do the trick just by hearing the command word. Make your hand signal (when you touch the floor with your hand) less pronounced until you can get your dog to respond just by saying "Duck!" Have patience and let your dog learn at its own pace. Go back to an earlier step if you have trouble phasing out food lures or hand signals.

Summary: Use your hand to signal as you say the command. Offer a treat after your dog ducks properly. Withhold the reward a little longer each time you practice. Replace the treat reward with plenty of verbal praise. Phase out the hand signal.

The "Firefox" button is located in the upper left corner of the Firefox window. Clicking this button will open a two-column drop-down menu. This menu contains a number of setting-related browser options. First select "Options" in the right column of the drop-down menu. Hovering over this word will cause another side menu to drop out. Click on "Options" at the top of this menu to open the "Options" dialogue box. If using a Mac instead of a PC, look for an option called "Preferences" instead of "Options." Click on the "Privacy" button in the middle of the "Options" dialogue box. There are eight panel buttons spread across the top of the "Options" dialogue box. Each one has a label and a corresponding icon. The icon for the "Privacy" panel looks like a masquerade mask. Clicking on the "Privacy" button will open a separate panel within the same dialogue box. The "Privacy" panel contains two sections: "History" and "Location Bar." At the top of the "History" section are the words "Firefox will:" and a drop-down menu. Click on the arrow next to this drop-down menu to open it and select the "Use custom settings for history" option. Note that unless you select this option, the other history settings will likely remain grayed out, preventing you from altering them. This is the lowest checkbox among a list of checkboxes in the "History" section. Selecting this box will cause Firefox to automatically clear your Internet history whenever you close the browser. Next to the "Clear history when Firefox closes" checkbox is the "Settings..." button. Clicking on this button opens a separate dialogue box. This dialogue box will allow you to change which aspects of your Internet history will be cleared upon closing the browser. If you want to clear your cache and nothing more, only select the "Cache" checkbox. Other history-related options include "Browsing History," "Download History," "Form & Search History," "Cookies," and "Active Logins." Data-related options include "Saved Passwords," "Offline Website Data," and "Site Preferences." Click on the "OK" button in the "Settings for Clearing History" dialogue box to save the setting and close the box. Click on "OK" in the "Options" window to save the setting and close this window, as well.

Summary: Click on the "Firefox" button. Select "Options" from the drop-down menu twice. Choose the "Privacy" panel. Change the "History" settings. Check the "Clear history when Firefox closes" box. Click on the "Settings" button. Only check the "Cache" button. Click on "OK" twice.

Don't just pick the first bamboo plant you find, but look for a healthy one. You can find Lucky Bamboo plants at your local garden center or nursery, and even some grocery stores. It may be labeled one of the following ways: Lucky Bamboo, Ribbon Plant, or occasionally by its true name, Dracaena sanderiana. Caring for a Lucky Bamboo plant isn't very hard, but if you get one that isn't healthy, it will be much harder to care for and it may die. The size of the plant doesn't matter too much here, as most of them will be fairly small. It should be an even green color all over with no blemishes, bruises, or yellowing. The stalks should be a consistent color from the base to their tops. There also shouldn't be any browning on the tips of the leaves. Lucky Bamboo plants are very resilient, but if they have been planted incorrectly or have a sour odor, they could be sick, and won't grow. Bamboo plants don't have a fragrance like flowers do, but if they haven't been watered properly, they can grow bacteria and develop a stink. Check the current water levels, and check to see if it has soil or fertilization. Many bamboo plants are grown hydroponically, just in water with small rocks or pebbles to hold the stalks in place. Some may be in soil, however, check to make sure that it is at least half full of water, or the soil is moist, but not soaked.
Summary: Find a plant that looks appealing to you. Pick one that's a vibrant green color. Make sure it's been planted properly and doesn't smell.
