Hi! So it is day 2 with Jaanu and he is amazing! One thing that I am seeing is that it is definitely a lot trickier to train a dog in real life that trainers make it look in the youtube videos, haha. Any advice on the length and spacing of training sessions I should try?
The problem is that every time I sit down to train him he jumps up onto my lap and starts trying to lay there or to chew on me. Another issue is that when I play fetch with him 1. it is tricky to teach him to leave it (I can get him to by giving a different toy or a treat though) and when he brings back the toy he jumps onto my lap.
Any advice on how to get him to stop jumping up on my lap and to be sort of still for training? Any recommended methods for teaching sit and stay?
Most of the videos on youtube show someone training a pretty chill puppy (one that it just standing or is laying around), so I'm not able to really do some of the things they do right off the bat.
