I took Chewy to puppy classes - 4 classes once a week. In those classes I learned the same thing about pushing down his/her bum - DON'T DO IT! It is so bad and so sad to do that to dogs....it really can damage them. Breaks my

to see owners do that. Chewy now sits really good on comand. Took lots of time, lots of treats and lots of love. One of his fav's is Zuke's Mini Naturals Chicken - they're just his size treats and they moist. Sometimes I even break them in thirds for training.
