    May I Brag?

    Lol, just wanted to give an update on Lizzie's training. For some reason we started obedience a tad bit late, but its better late than never!
     
    Well anyway, just wanted to update that Lizzie has an A+ on her sit! She learned in just one 15 minute session to sit, thanks to some yummy treats I made her (got the recipe here). So now she is getting a treat only half the time with praise, and the other half just praise.
     
    Now I have to work on her sit stay because she is one hyper girl! Any tips?

    Patience!  lol....  You slowly extend the amount of time to remain in the sit.  Either using sit as the word or sit with a stay.

    With stays, always make it easy. Never go on to the next "level" (longer stays or bigger distractions) until your dog is ready. Go backwards a level if she's breaking too often. Keep sessions short and always end on an easy stay with a big reward.
