The down command just frustrates me... There was actually one time where my wife grabbed the treat and set it down and she actually went to the ground and was preparing to lay down, but then she said down and she hesitated before sitting back up. Bleh... So many problems and I have no idea where I'm going wrong. |
They're just easily excitable. You should see Kaji when I have a yummy treat he wants. I'll say down and he does: dance, beg, down, roll over and for a big finish he plays dead.
he's just trying to please so he can get the treat. It cracks me up! It takes him a moment to compose himself and then he's my little performer.
