Hi people, 2 questions today.
I've been training my puppy to sit and to lay down for quite a while now. The problem is, she doesn't really seem to be understanding the vocal command for lay down, just the hand signal i do, since my training consisted of baiting her into position with a treat. So she only goes down when my hand goes down too. What can I do?
The other thing is... I´ve been working hard on that down command and now, when I'm holding treats, trying to teach her something new, she immediatly goes into a down position expecting a treat....Which makes teaching other tricks quite difficult. Any suggestions on what to do?
Thank you for you attention
PS: Any suggestion on easy/simple tricks I could teach her?
