@elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch.
If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !

My wife and I rescued our 1.5 yr old from a no kill shelter this past weekend.
She has been very active since we took her home and introduced her to our Huskie mix and Schnauzer. It was touch and go at first but they seem to be getting along now. Is there anywhere we can get some training guidelines on house breaking etc.! -
Hi and welcome!
House training with any dog is the same boring work... with an adult it usually takes less time than a puppy because their bladders are able to hold longer, but honestly, it is absolutely necessary to watch, leash to you, crate or outside every second until you have a dog who consistently asks to or goes outside. Every time you mess up, it prolongs training.

Another good one:
