puppy make 2-3 steps, young dog maybe 10-few times a week

I find this trait very "wolfish" and beautiful and would be afraid to spoil it by teaching a dog "circus walking".

When dog is really attentive, obidient, concentreted, full in drive and fast but not it`s ok for me, I like it
I saw one (1) csv like this, but if I see that handler is in half way back when the dog just make turn about ...

Example:
I start learning changing position when she was not ready. Now I have sit from down to the front but down from sit also to the front and because of that she move to the front even if she make no steps
It`s very hard now to change meaning of a command. I`m talking only about sport obidience. Home work must be done so early as posible!!! Introdution to sport too.
edit:
I saw video
Great puppy
There is introdution to cliker work. Very nice. I hope they publicate similar movie in next year I`m very intresting how they will work with this changing position

But it is much more easy to train a young dog than to wait til he is one year! Even speciality judges and absolutely breed specialist like Oscar Dora train their pups with 10 weeks with all sorts of command, which you saw in the video. I saw it 2 years ago with my own ice.

Oskar Dora have ever trained csv to high obidence? I know him as great exterier judge and breed specialist but first time I hear that he is also obidience specialist
