Has anyone taught a sit pretty? I want Aspen to do it SO bad! I've been building up her muscles so I think she CAN do it now but I cannot get her to do it without the lure. I've watched Kikopup and I'm on a trick training group on FB but nothing seems to be working... any suggestions?

I lured with Forbes and at the beginning gave him support with my leg until he built up the muscle tone to do it. Roxie still needs support from my leg (She's not very balanced).

@jclark343

How did you remove the lure and just use a cue?

 

[jclark343]

I started by adding the command to the lure (stick'em up) then slowly started pulling the lure farther from his nose with the command. If that makes sense at all...

I think that makes sense- thanks! I'll give that a try
