Look, I'm still not sure how to get that one down and need to research more videos to make sure I'm doing it well. Down, I didn't want to break em so I nudge the front paws forward slightly while sliding the body back into the down position. We worked for about 15 min.

This afternoon we had our 2nd session. Sit was a snap, wait wasn't so difficult, look not too bad, down came by the last two bites! Lil munchkin got the command DOWN! It's so thrilling to feel that your pet understands you...


The next commands that I want to work on are come, roll over, and jump.
Thats wonderful Keep at it. It really does get a little easier as they practice. And then when they get it they see you excited and they get excited too. Hehe.I love when they have that Ah Ha! Moment and it gets their tail going because your both so happy.... They want to understand you... they just need you to show them how hehe.
