The second day I went to try it again - I had to roll her over once, then she started doing it on her own.
Now, whenever I say, "down" - she automatically lays down and rolls over - not exactly what I want her to do - especially in training class! So, now we have to work on the down/stay instead of down/roll.

I'm so jealous, two days? Wow. Reagan does the same thing about lying down then automatically rolling over now too. I will usually try to catch her with my hand and stop her but most the time I'm not quick enough. I guess she's thinking let's hurry up and get this over with.
