| As I learned from these boards always make the training fun. We also used the clicker to learn new behaviors and have used treats. Try giving a treat every other command then every two and so on and wean the treats out. When not giving a treat though make sure to praise with your voice or with a pat on the head. Hang in there!

PS you might also leave the treat in a pocket or somewhere the dog is unable to see it so the concentration can stay on you :)
