Trick Training 101

Teaching your dog new tricks is not only a load of fun but enhances your dogs ability to learn. Tricks are by far one of our favorite things to teach and is even more fun for the dogs!! Trick Training 101 is an introductory course and will be the stepping stone for more involved trick training classes that will be offered at a later date.

Trick Training 101 covers some of basic and fun tricks; you and your dog will learn the following:

Shake/Paw – having your dog give you his paw on cue

Play Dead – teaching your dog to lay on his side

Spin – having your dog spin in a particular direction. Turn – having your dog spin in the opposite direction of Spin

Center – to sit, down or stand in between your leg while you are standing

Go Through – to move from a position in front of you and travel through your legs

Paws Up – to place both front paws on a object
