Dog Behaviour Training Tricks


CARRY!

Carefully place a small object, like an old glove, a leather wallet or the handle of a small basket, in your dog's mouth and flatter him with "Aren't you smart!" Scratching his back will also help teach your dog to carry.

OUT!

Never take things from your dog by pulling. When you want him to let go, take hold of the object with one hand and say "Out!" If he won't give it up, surprise him with a little cuff on the nose with the free hand. When he drops what he is holding, praise him and pat him.

DANCE!

Hold something to eat above your dog's head and teach him to dance. When he stands on his back legs to reach the food, say "Dance!" and move your hand in a circle to make the dog pivot. After he turns, give him the food and praise him.

PRAYERS

Make your dog sit in front of a low bench. Place his front paws on the bench. Say "Prayers!" and gently push his head down. At the same time, offer him food between his front legs. Release him with "Amen!" or "O.K.!"

WAIT!

Place a ball or a piece of dog biscuit on your dog's nose between his eyes. Tell him "Wait!" After a moment or two tell him "O.K.!" and see if he can catch it. This trick may take a lot of practice.

TAKE A BOW!

Take advantage of your dog's natural ways to teach additional tricks. When he stretches, say "Take a bow!"

SPEAK!

When he barks or sniffles, put your finger in the air and say "Speak!" or "Sneeze!" It won't take long for your dog to learn that whenever he makes a noise he will get a reward.

Gimli learning to give me her foot, part II

Gimli's continued "foot" training -- she's getting better! I've slowed down one "foot-giving" so you can see better what's actually going on because she's so quick(!) Note that I am simply ignoring her little bites (no click and reward for unwanted behaviour) and then rewarding her for satisfactory "foot-giving". At the end I give her an extra "jackpot" seed to end the session on a good note (before she gets bored). For the people that haven't read previous posts: Gimli is an approx 12 year old Red Rumped Parrot/Parakeet that I started clicker training/training with positive reinforcement approx 4 months ago. At that point she was completely hand-shy. She has had considerable progress! Additionally her confidence has grown, and she seems like a much happier and livelier bird -- not that she was miserable before, it's just that she interacts a lot more with us now. The training has also helped bring out her personality a lot more -- so if anyone out there is wondering -- I say give clicker training a go! It is so much more than "just trick training"! Your pet(s) will thank you for it - because it's fun!
