How do I get my puppy to lie on its side?

What people tried

Every workaround mentioned in the threads below. We haven’t tested any of them — and nobody here is claiming they worked.

1. 1
   Practicing on carpet instead of hard floors for better traction
2. 2
   Holding off on training that specific command until the puppy gets a bit older
3. 3
   Feeding meals piece by piece while sitting on the couch only when the puppy is not barking, whining, biting, or humping
4. 4
   Ignoring protestations while playing video games and praising or showing physical affection once the puppy plops down
5. 5
   Looking into structured training methods like Relaxation Protocol, matwork, or place training
