Trick Training

The time has come to have a bit of fun with your pet.? You step out the door, unhook the leash and throw a tennis ball to the other end of the yard And your dog looks up at you like you just lost your mind.? What went wrong?? Looks like its time to head back to the training ground for Fetch lessons.

Teaching the trick of “sitting up” can be easily taught to small dogs and medium size dogs, but we don’t suggest teaching it to some big dogs as it’s difficult for them to keep their balance. The training of the sitting up is one of the first tricks to teach after you teach your dog to sit. It also helps to form the ground work for many other dog tricks. To train a dog to sit up, have on hand some of you dogs favorite treats in easy reach as a reward.

Teaching a dog a tick can be a rewarding experience for both pet and owner. It provides an opportunity for positive interaction between the dog and his trainer, which is always desirable. Additionally, it creates future opportunities for the dog to engage in approved behavior while also providing both parties a feeling of satisfaction. Thousands of tricks have been taught to dogs ranging from the common (roll over) to the entirely unique. Certainly thousands of new tricks are being conceived and taught to dogs with each passing day.
