Awesome editing on the video - I don't even know how to begin to do that?!
Ha, thanks. It literally took me a year to get him to learn this, but it was all my fault for bad technique. Once I learned how to teach it, he picked it up in a little over a week. Sully would probably have it down in one lesson.

A trick book suggested looping his leash under his leg and holding it up. Then lure him forward with a treat. I did that two or three times a day until he got it.

The book says you can also make a sling, but that didn't work for us. The leash trick worked great.

As for the video, it's just a Mac thing. Even the tech-challenged like me can do iMovie.
