We may not think or know it, but a dog will lie down only when its comfortable in a particular situation. If there are many distractions that the dog hasnt learnt to cope with yet, you may see your dog lie down for a brief moment, then it bobs up again, and its unable to settle for some time.
In this video, Kiyo, CCO (Chief Cheery Officer) of cheerfuldogs.com shows how you can teach "Down" to your dog in tiny steps until you get the full behaviour. Note that the verbal cue, "Down" is only said once each time and not repeatedly.
