Bridget Brady on Americas Dog Trainer (1 of 2)

Bridget is a dog trainer at Narnia Pet Behavior and Training who enjoys competing in agility and teaching a variety of fun and friendly classes for pet dogs. Bridget demonstrates how training your dogs to get excited and energized on command, is the only way you can train them to settle down quietly on command. Watch how quickly these dogs go from jumping and spinning, to lying on their sides. Next, the class practices their polite greetings, by sitting before and after meeting someone. Bridget finishes part 1 with a game to measure obedience, loose-leash heeling and composure under pressure.

I agree that that they are not "settled", but if you can get them to do this on demand, OK.

With most of these dogs, 'settle' was the same as 'sit' or 'down', just another command in which they wait for another command. They are not relaxed, but just on their side on the floor, head on the floor as well. I understand that this might be a good way to end play, but the dogs don't look 'settled' or relaxed at all.
