I am on my second trainer for my 2.5year old Great Pyr. My dog is a super prospective therapy dog. However, he needs to get some basic commands down in order to get admitted to school. I have been to the best trainer in Nashville and although there is progress, he seems to just shut down after a while. I am supposed to find his motivation - perhaps some really good treats (that can be transported easily). Just when I think he's got the hang of something, he will just roll over on his back and just be bored. I am not talking about lengthy training sessions. Just 1/2 hour. I know it's hot but this is in a/c room. I am so frustrated. I know he loves to visit grandma in the nursing home and is so sweet and gentle with babies and kids and seniors but I can kiss this dream goodbye unless I find his motivation. So, all you pyr experts out there, can anyone offer suggestions?
