The 9 month old I think is testing me (at least she looks directly at me and does nothing) and I am flunking, the other little one is just so exciting she does the direction but only can hold it maybe a few seconds if at all

Oh boy ! I am having the same problem and thought that perhaps your respondents would teach me something---but I see you have had no replies.
My ten month old poodle does great when I have him on a 40 foot line---comes when calle, sits on command etc etc . But when off leash its almost as if I am not there.
If I find any advice I will let you know.
