You said you follow through on you commands, which is great! But do you find that you're repeating yourself?

Many times, we'll say a command. We'll wait....they don't respond, so we assume they didn't hear us / ignoring us, we repeat again. We wait... then we'll correct them physically.

When we repeat, we teach our dogs that we don't mean it the first time! ;) You need to have patience. Put her on the lead, ask her to sit. Once. Then wait. Eventually, she'll get the idea that you mean it and sit.

And do bring it up to your trainer...that's what they're there for!! :D
