just a quick thought. i know it worked with my 2.. and my youngest is only 4 months  (still a working progress :P) |
thanks for the advice! i'll definately try that! I was also trying a technique where i'd give her treats for staying at a certain point while opening the door. It worked! but once people started actually arriving, she got way too excited she couldn't stay focus. I'll give her a few more weeks to get the hang of it!
This is my first puppy!
I love how she's obedient most of the time.
