hello, my name is ruth and i/we my husband are dog owners for the first time ever. we have a 9 month old maltese named Motley. he weighs about 7.5 lbs and is the sweetest dog ever. He knows how to sit but only does so when offered a treat. i would like to teach him to be more obedient but not sure how. hope you all can help. thank you ruth:dogtongue2:
