Amos got that one really quick. After having him to "sit" for a treat, I would lower the treat to the floor just in front of his nose, then reward him with the treat once he was all the way down. I accompanied that with saying "Down" and dropping my hand down and back. Now all I have to do is drop my hand and he will go "down" for his treat. We still need to work on "Stay" and "Come".
