First, be sure you are teaching your dog in a quiet (non-distracting) environment. Once your dog has mastered these skills in a quiet environment you may add in distractions. Make sure to always have a “high-value” treat your dog LOVES as a reinforcer (see “What’s Your Dogs Currency” Webinar for information on what a high value treat is). Lastly, make sure to practice for at least 5 minutes everyday for 1 year before removing the “high-value” treat.
