With my puppy cami she was pretty much easy with the lie down and the sit.. Still trying the Paw.. But how i taught her lie down was almost the same as LOVEMYSHIBA said. Well first what i did was have her sit. At the time she was learning sit so we gave her a treat. Then we would bring the treat down while kind of holding her back so she couldnt get up then she followed the treat down.. Then once she lays said good LAY DOWN.. And reward her..Or another way to do it is whenever you see her just lying down then tell her good laydown! And go crazy for her being such a good dog for lying down.. This is the way i taught my puppy how to do it.. She was learning very easy.. So if you have any other questions about it you can either go to search training your dog or just talk to me.. Lol..
