Pippa's 'Settle'

Thanks to some advice on another thread I managed to teach Pippa 'settle'. As you can see, in the video she thinks about it for a second but she knows what to do! Most of the time shes straight down. We used it during dog training last night where she usually gets excited and barks at the other dogs when waiting her turn, and it worked really well at keeping her calm and quiet.

I've slowly increased the time, but decreased it again when using it at class due to the many distractions i didn't want to make it too difficult.
