Here comes more Tricks for you to teach your dog. Remember to be gentle and give him rewards after any successful attempt.

Teaching “Crawl”

(Your dog should know “Down” before this)
Start by having your dog lie down. Hold a treat just in front of his nose and say, “Crawl.” If he starts to stand up, say, “No, down…crawl”, while you are pulling the treat away, keeping it low, near the ground.Repeat he order, but extending it (Craaaaaaawl)” When your dog moves even an inch or two without standing up, praise him, give him the treat and say, “Good dog! Craaawl.”

Teaching “Roll Over”

Start again by having your dog lie down. Hold a treat by his nose, and then move it around and behind him, so that he lies on his side and then rolls over. Praise him with all your love!
(Remember to roll your dog only on soft surfaces like carpet or grass so he doesn’t hurt his back. Some dogs don’t like to roll over. It can be a little scary for them to put their belly up. Try it a few times and but if it’s not fun for your dog, choose another trick)

Teaching “Back”

One of the easyest tricks! Stand facing your dog and as you walk toward him, say “Go Back”. He will want to get out of the way and will automatically walk backwards! If your dog doesn’t walk back in a straight line, practice up against a wall or in a narrow hallway. After your dog is walking backward with you, try walking toward him only a step or two. Eventually, you will be able to stand still and say “Go Back”.
