When I read up on it, using a clicker sounded easy. Maybe someone can help me out in the comments. What should you do after the first sit, in order to be able to repeat the exercise? They are so cute!!! I seem a litle lost, don’t I? Thanks for watching!

I have a 14 week old chocolate lab and I got him when he was 8 weeks old. We started clicker training within 2 days. You have to hold the treat close to his nose and slowly pull it up over and behind his head and that will make him sit. As soon as he does that then click and treat. You seem to do a good job though. I have noticed that in my case patience is of the up most importance and repeat and repeat and repeat………..

I am not a dog trainer lol..but I think you did good. Can’t expect to be perfect on your first try. The pups did real well too…maybe they can teach you while you teach them lol

wow Bailey is very good!! he sat and he’s looking at you.. that’s a very very good sign
.. he knows that he has too look and listen at you to get the prize, you have a great start! You should add good boy or good dog 
. You can click him for coming as well, when he follows you add a command like “heel” or “here.” and reward him. You’re doing great
