Be consistent and don't short the learning phase. Daily reps of exercises and clear marking of the right behaviors will help your dog learn the commands. There are several good books on training and I recommend using a marking system with luring positions early in the training process. When the dogs show a clear understanding of the commands we begin to work on a reward based system and begin to phase out the food and work with praise. Best of luck to you in training your dog!
