Got a stubborn one huh? Okay try this- ( I had a stubborn dobie once) .. I would have her sit in front of a couch so her butt was against it.. Let her see a treat- cup it in your fist- go slightly OVER her head.. ( yes over- i will say why in a second) then drop it down and slightly towards you.. She will go right down.. After a few of these- they have it..
I said over the head first because that pulls the shoulders up and forward- it would be harder to stay in a sit, and they have to callapse the shoulders.. POOF instant down..
