I love my labrador! I hope you can get one, too! What color are you wanting? I trained leave it pretty much the same way binka nugget did, but, i don't think i could leave food yet in front of finn and leave the room. He's only six months old, though! Sit pretty, I did by making him sit and then placing my feet on either side of him (in the back, like by his hips) and luring him to sit up and my legs were his support. But, he is really clumsy with it, and, looks silly doing it. But, he sits up! I don't think it's pretty, but, i just tell him to sit up. It was easy to teach him.
