Try this session plan

four small steps, straight from the trainer’s notebook

One cue, one meaning - make sure the whole family uses the same words.

Log tiny progress in a notebook; behaviour change is a paw-by-paw trail.

Pick a quiet moment - a calm dog learns faster than a wound-up one.

Keep the session short: three to five minutes, then a sniff break.
