Tomi, Thanks for the advice. We are too remote for obedience classes, but I started tonight with the praise suggestion. We haven't tried the sit yet, but will let you know how that goes. I just know that Riley is so smart, if I just knew what to do, he would do it. This is really frustrating for me and I don't want to pass this frustration on to him. Thanks again and if you think of any otherlittle suggestions, let me know. Myrna

Tomi,

My border collie is an excellent working cow dog. He does everything from penning to gathering to driving, however; he will not do simple commands such as "sit". I want to start training him in agility but am at a loss as to how to begin. He is with me 24 hours a day and is very well behaved. His "cow commands" were just learned as a pup and it was way too easy. Now I want more I don't know where to begin. Can anybody give me some guidance?
