I reward it for doing what I want it to do instead of yelling at it .I yell words at it as it 's great at listening to my wordsI use my loud voice to pronounciate my words as that works the best .I whisper my words softly as that works best .
How am I able to get it to do what I want it to do ?
When the pup has sat quietly for 10 seconds , then he will be petted . Lather , rinse , repeat . This will take some time but i believe it is the best solution for this problem ( saying down does nothing when he 's too damn excited , and it just makes him ignore the word more . ) practicing on different people would be excellent .
