Thanks! Just got in from another practice in the yard. WOW, it's warm today and our front yard really lacks shade, but it's the easiest spot to set up the cones.
Maybe it's not that he's not motivated, but he's VERY laid back and has no sense of urgency. He likes to take his time, observe things, sniff things... he really likes to soak in his surroundings. He likes to sniff the grass, the flowers, watch the bees buzzing, look at the birds.
No matter how excited and encouraging my voice is, no matter how yummy the treat (most treats end up just caught in his slobber and jowls and end up falling out of his mouth, so he's not that motivated by them...).
Even asking him to sit... He will sit the first time that I ask him to, but it takes him forever! First, he has to look around him to make sure he's not going to sit on anything and then he will ever so slowly make his way into the sit position.
haha definitely need videos
have you tried pushing him around to get him excited and raise his drive
