This might seem like a silly one.... but put your dog on a leash.
A big part of finding success in training your dog involves preventing them from failing over and over again.
One of the easiest ways to prevent failure and increase control, is to put your dog on a leash.
When your pup is on a leash, you can guide them in different directions to show them what to do, and you can simultaneously stop them from doing things you don't like (walking off and ignoring you, running over to/jumping on your family member who walked into the room while you are practicing training, and many more).
So put your pup on a leash, grab some food rewards, and start practicing their commands with a little more control!
