So from a sit position, I want to be able to have the dog go into a stand with a verbal signal. Tai, stand. When your dog knows a difference between sit, stand, yes then you are ready to begin your work. If your dog does not know the difference you are going to want to start using luring. Once they are sitting, teaching a dog how to stand. Yes and then giving him a cookie. Okay, so we are going to have time to do a stand and wait. This way, we are going to do this one from a down. Tai sit. Down, Wait. Tai stand, wait. Yes, okay. What we want is the dog to be standing still not standing and moving forward or standing in fidgeting. We are going to do this again.
