Currently enjoying some inhand showing with my 6yo however I am really struggling to get her to stand still firstly and secondly to stand in a proper show type stance.
She stands square but I cannot get her to round the neck nicely and she ends up messing around with her head and trying to nibble the handler (probably looking for treats although I dont actually treat her by hand)
If she is treated by hand she does become very bitey and wont respect my personal space. She also does a lot of nudging which I disclipline her for however she still tries her luck every time.
She is a general fidget at home and will paw for attention which I ignore.
I know this is basic manners but how do I actually teach her that stand means stand and also to stand properly not just in any old messy fashion!?
Thanks!
