Hi Dana, your video got randomly suggested to me and clicked out of pure curiosity but I was pleasantly surprised. Very good and clear video! Your instructions and examples were very clear and concise and the explanation of why you're teaching it this or that way was helpful to understand the logic. That bit with the fast-forward was really useful to see the slow progress clearly! If I may give you some unrequested advise, back when I was trying to teach my dogs I always struggled with knowing what to teach when. It might be useful for you to number your videos and to point new viewers to your other viewers, e.g. "this video is number X of my teaching videos and it's a medium/advanced command. If you're looking for more basic commands, click *here*". Good luck!
I was curious of this and the first thing is a thing I have desperately tried to teach my dog: backing up. It just sits tightly to the ground whenever I try to get it to back up 😅 I guess it's clearly easier with some dogs than others to teach that 😂 Well, I'll still see the rest of the video if there will be something that helps me 😃
Sometimes teaching stand first is easier! I have a video on my channel that gives some different methods on how to teach stand first, before trying to teach back up! Amo already knows back up, but starting off it was a very similar situation, it just takes some persistence and patience, dont give up!😊
@DanaAndDogs My dog halfly knows standing. If it's non-pressure situation it usually follows stand command but if it really wants something (like treat), it usually tries to please me by sitting or even laying down when I try to get it to stand 😅😂 I guess I need to keep practising that too.
Great information!
So glad to hear you found this video helpful!

I really appreciate your feedback! I will try to start doing that in the future!
