Ok so I am having a little bit of trouble with Teagan. Her training was going really well she learned sit. down. shake roll over, stay, catch ect ect no problem, But now she is getting this idea in her head that she is only going to do a trick other than sit ONLY if she sees a treat in her hand and there is something in it for her. And when I do get her to do a trick alot of the time she screws them up because she gets so excited. Last night I was going through her tricks with her. I would ask her to lay down and I would have to use the treat to stretch her out to lay and as soon as she would lay she would roll over and I did not ask her to do that. Sometimes she will give me the paw when she see's I have a treat. She must think she is so smart The thing that stumps me is that she knows her tricks and has done them on command without treats.
It does help a little if I get her to lay down and tell her to stay and put the treat about six inches from her nose and make her wait abit until I say "OK". That seems to calm her down a little
Also I would love to start agility with her this summer so I want her ready for that.
I am thinking I just need to start over, but how? Any suggestions that might help?
