          Great job, he’s doing fantastic and waiting for her to listen and then respond.   Our Head Trainer Darcie is on vacation, but she will take a look and let you know if there is any feedback too.  Thanks for posting.

            I’m smiling watching your son work with her. Makes my heart sing! Just remind him that she is watching his hand movements very closely. So when he says sit, he needs to bring his hand up towards the sky (as though he’s flicking an old school light switch on) or else not show her his hand at all to minimize confusion. I like that he paused after giving her the release cue to give her a chance to process and that he stepped back to encourage her to move forward!
