Re: training
I used marker training, which is like clicker training but instead of the clicker I say 'yes' to mark the correct behaviour and then reward with a treat. You can use this to teach any command.
Also here are a couple of links which may help x

Re: training
Arm yourself with some small, high value treats and get out with the long training lead most of all have fun and end with something your dog can do well.

Re: training
Liver cake is Bane's new favourite! If you like to bake
Lots and lots of praise and patience is also needed! Just treat it as something fun to do and a great way of bonding with them and you'll have a great time It's so good when they learn a new trick!

Re: training
The treats and links will help. Just remember to be patient and consistant as well.

Re: training
Ah thats a great start, if you put the time in you will get the results, Its best to do short training sessions of just 5/10 mins several times a day
