Smile I'm having trouble with the sit command

Luxie is great with sit, down, bark, and come commands after about 5 days of training/playing with her. I'm having trouble with the stay command any suggestions? Also is it better to use the clicker for training, I don't have one but i have heard of using one.

Are you having trouble with sit or stay? Your thread title says one thing but your post says another.

How long are you trying to get her to stay? 30 seconds is a LONG time for a baby

How old is she? It's always good to provide that information in your original post. If she's a puppy this should be in one of the puppy forums. I can have it moved if necessary.

I absolutely recommend the clicker! Great site to get started is : Intro to Clicker Training (perfect for puppies!)

Good luck and remember to start slow and our dogs ATTITUDE is most important. Then all the training will follow.
