please help me

Answer
If getting out in front and coaxing doesn't get a puppy moving, try dropping behind it and running by in baby steps calling ''Go, go, go!'' In a happy, excited voice.

Letting the dog run around the house with a leash on helps too.  Buy a cheap one and cut it down to 2-3 feet.  Be very careful the puppy doesn't get tangled up.
