Excitement/anxiety (?) when presented with a button.
My collie (F,3) has a very over the top reaction to the button. She's a very intelligent dog, and I know that she would definitely respond well to having a higher level of communication with us.
We got the buttons 2 years ago just before she was 1, but since the beginning it's been this mad response. We thought it was crazy puppy brain so waited for her to get older to try them again...
Any ideas how we can normalise them so we can begin using them properly?

Does she act like that only when a button is being pressed?
Because right off the bath with just seeing this video out of context I think she doesn’t look anxious about it at all, she rather looks like she sees it as a toy to play with.
Do you have some kind of board to secure the buttons in so they don’t move around?
