I have two methods for Yorkies, and you will think I'm crazy...haha, so
#1. Take a treat and have Joel 'Lay" or 'Down'. Put the treat in front of his nose and kind of steer him with it. Once he goes past the half way point, start praising him.
#2. If he doesn't get it with #1, you lay on the floor and slowly roll over, saying it the whole time. Some dogs learn by watching/seeing.
Can the big dog roll over? |
