Hi there,
That’s the trouble with puppies who are a bit too bright: repeating the same commands over and over bores them incredibly quickly! Training needs to be turned into a bit of a brain game.
To do this, try combining mental stimulation with scent work; dogs love using their noses, and it tires them out three times more than a walk would. One example is the "Find it" training method. This involves asking your pup to "Stay", then going to hide a toy or a treat in another room while they watch you. Come back to them and give your release command. This allows them to link the rather frustrating act of staying still with the ultimate reward of the hunt!
Best wishes,
Laure.
