Hello all, I've just become a member and hope I can really get some help. I have 2 new puppies and have been training them from day one. I've had them 4 weeks now. The problem is that I can't seem to hold there attention. Even if I'm holding a treat and they're hungry, they won't pay attention to me for more than a couple of seconds - they would even rather look at a speck in the floor than me!
I've somehow managed to get them to learn to sit on command, but it seems anything else isn't working. What am I doing wrong?
I've read ALOT of different websites and watch the Dog Whisperer religiously. I've tried just about everything I can think of to get & keep their attention to no avail. If anyone could please offer some insight or let me know if I'm doing anything wrong I ( and the puppies! ) would greatly appreciate it Thanks.
