Percy is still very young so it will take some time and training. I would consider taking him to a trainer for the best results. You can try clicker training or treats if he is food motivated. You can also put him on a leash if he tends to get excited and run off during training. Below I have included on links of training. https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/training/what-is-clicker-training-a-great-way-to-shape-your-dogs-behavior/ https://www.clickertraining.com/15tips https://www.cesarsway.com/dog-training/obedience/how-to-get-your-dog-to-listen-to-you https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/training/teaching-your-puppy-to-listen/ http://www.dogtrainingbasics.com/why-wont-dog-listen-to-me/
