Hi!
First of all, it's best to have the flash turned off. Pet eye's are sometimes really hard to reduce, so I usually [if inside], turn on the lights in the room on and open the curtains. Make sure she is in the light, but not facing it.
Secondly, I always have treats in hand! I use 'Little Jacs' by 'Bil-Jac'. [works like a charm

].
I get Molly to sit, or position her how I want her, or just wait for her to do something cute. She then gets a treat, while I'm saying "Stay". I hold the treat up in the direction I want her to look--continuously saying "Stay".
After I get the shot, she get's another treat.
If your outside, and just want some cute action shots. Make sure your cam is on the 'action' setting. Or, change the ISO speed so you catch the action you want before it's over.......It is possible for the camera to be quicker than they are!

lol.
