Tricks training is a wonderful activity to participate in with you and your dog , It is both mentally and physically enriching for your dog and it improves your skills as , your dogs trainer , an easy trick that you can get started with would be paw, or some people refer to that , as shake and what you want to make sure you do with tricks training is keep the training , fun and positive for your dog , A good recommendation I'd like to give everyone is to resist the temptation to grab whenever , training any behavior - you want them to think it through and in order for them to do that , you need to break it down into small achievable steps so you're not necessarily looking for , the end result you're looking for anything that's moving in the direction of that , So for paw I'm not going to grab at his feet because he might not like that he's also not , using his brain if I'm doing the work for him so dogs if they often cannot get something , with their mouth they use their feet so I'm going to put a treat right on Jack's nose , and I'm going to have my hand ready when he tries to knock them out of my hand because , he can't get them with his mouth and I'm just going to wait for that - I'm going to wait , for any paw movement whatsoever - he moved his left paw just a little bit so that was , a nice baby step - good I got a lot of movement out of the right one - I'm going to try again , - good - I say the word good every time he does the behavior correctly and slowly it , seems that I will be able to shake with his paw , The repetition of hearing the word good when his paw touches my paw so he makes that association , So now I think I'm ready to take the treats away - good - he Oise still going to get one , but I don't necessarily want to put them up front anymore and then we can work with a , little duration so he can hold it there - oh beautiful - good and now that he's doing that , readily if I'd like to put a verbal Que on it I'm going to be able to say - Jack - paw , - good - and now I'vie taught my dog to give paw.
