Well, I'll try to help you with the down command, bc Uni is a spaz on the leash and I won't go there right now. But if you want to browse the training forum, you can read all about my crazy monkey.
Anyway, I'm going to assume your Daisy is either tiny or a puppy, or both. Try the down command with her sitting in a chair or stool, instead of the floor. Go for the sit, then with a treat in your hand, slowly lower it below the seat level of the stool. Sometimes with these tinies, their nose is only a few inches from the ground, so when you lower the treat to the ground, they just look at it and go, Yeah? what? So if you lower is past the seat level, they will have to go in a down position to get to it. Keep your free hand ready over her butt in case her booty goes up while her head goes down. As soon as you see her elbows bend say good girl and slowly keep moving the treat lower until she is all the way down. then praise praise praise!!!
