Awe so cute!!! How did you teach her to sit? The easiest way is to put the treat like up right above the bridge of their snout. It forces them to sit cause they want to see it. That's how I did it with Geno. Look online or in books about the different ways you can teach these tricks. It can be a lot easier. At least it was for me when teaching Geno how to lay down. You put the treat out in front of them and slowly lower it down in front of them and then trail it off like you are basically drawing out an "L". It really does get them to lay down and after repetition, they will catch on. It took me about an hour to teach Geno to lay down. He actually lays down now instead of sitting when I go to give him a treat lol Either way is mannerly to me so I don't mind.
