I think I remember you posting about this a while back.

Have you tried re-training him the command "sit" while you are sitting? More than likely you trained him "sit" while standing, so that's what he's used to.

Ahhh..yes I posted this once before, and as you can see....No Progress!!

How do i go about retraining him to sit?? just start all over with treats and such??

Yep. I would start from the beginning, just like he was a pup but this time do like Kay says and train him from a seated position.

Well....after a few attempts with treats, he sat a few times for me. Guess we will just have to work on this for a while. Gotta love those hounds!

Good luck retraining him.

If it makes you feel any better, Founder has never learned to sit. He knows perfectly well what I am asking him to do. He just outright refuses to do it!

Ughhhh....I have never owned such a blatantly stubborn dog before!

All of our other dog have always been so eager to please! Maybe cause Duke wasnt a true rescue/Abuse case?? not sure, but he sure is a pain in my rear!

I keep telling him, that he is so lucky he is so adorably cute!
