Tricks
Here is an example of the commands that we have taught our dogs. Most sites recommend that you use what is comfortable for you. But I couldn't seem to find any examples. So here is what we use as a suggestion on some to try.
Circles
When teaching this trick, we simply took a treat and had them follow it in a large circle, then rewarded them with completion. As they began to catch onto the circle we began to make a smaller circle more above there head. Now we just make a circular motion above them.
Sit
When teaching this trick we started by showing the command then gently pushing on there hind end til they sat. then rewarding with a treat. after a few time like that we just showed/said the command and guided them with a tap on the hind end. Until they picked up the trick. This is a very simple trick for them to learn. and very important with in your daily life. When working with our dogs we always have them sit when beginning an activity or before we give another command. It is our way of getting there attention and know that they are ready to be directed.
