from my experience w/luc (and i am limited in that), i agree with carol.
if the dog stops/wants to stop, keep him busy. waiting him out, especially next to him - and this is just my experience w/luc - reinforces that there is a good/logical reason to be stopped, which there is not. that's why, with luc, if i did allow him to remain stopped, he had to do an obed. routine for me, so that the stopping was not focused on his reasons, but on something i wanted him to do, it was distracting, and it was confidence building in that he was doing something well and got praised for it, so that after a while the stops became positive, and then they faded away and i moved more to jealousy/keeping his mind occupied w/positive talk w/out stopping.
just my experience with luc though, so take it for what it's worth
