KSDS puppy in training Hosta working on sits

Hosta is a KSDS, Inc (www.ksds.org) puppy in training to be a guide dog, service dog, or social dog. This is our first time working with him on sitting while I keep moving. Then, when I walked by him after his first sit, he broke his implied stay and so on the second go-around I work on walking around him/by him so he can learn to do better. Then, on the next time I have him do a moving sit and then, with my back to him command him to do a down to see if he will do it without a facial cue. Hosta does well and even shows off his "wave". We still have a lot to work on, but this isn't bad for his first attempt.
