Sorry I didn't see this earlier but LP has it covered :thumbsup:

I had to break it down a bit more for Holly though and had her scurrying backwards in front of me for quite a few weeks before I started gradually turning myself around until I was facing the same direction as her. Even then I had to sort of step sideways in front of her THEN start moving backwards so that I almost pushed her into going "back" before she really got it. It was a true lightbulb moment, when she got it her whole face lit up. :D

We were the opposite to you, Pixie - my dog found walking backwards in front of me very very tricky, but the minute I put him in heel position beside a wall he clicked onto what I was asking. Our only problem is that when you remove the wall, he's not very good at backing straight back - we can only do a few steps before he's either under my feet or way too wide. :thumbsup:
