THey are perfect on the sit command in the house, I did start doing it outside but admittedly stopped but have recently started it again just over a week ago. Just got back from a walk and it was much better they are starting to respond to sit much sooner. Fortunatly met a guy walking his Lab whos met them before a he stood patiently with his dog while I got my two to calm down and sit. This is great but most people are not willing to listen and just want to talk to them and tell them how cute they are so I'm trying to destract them- the people- so the dogs can calm down.
I keep telling myself were are going to take backwards steps occassionally and try to take a deep breath before continueing but some walks just aren't as enjoyable as they should be, but they are both still young and as they learn I'm learning so hopefully we wont repeat the same mistakes. |
