7.
As he learns the verbal cue for the behaviour, start to reduce the lure until he will come
back to you on the verbal cue only.
Troubleshooting:
If your dog is not interested in coming towards you, you need to be more
exciting or offer a more desirable reward. Alternatively there may be too many distractions and
you may need to start in a quieter area.
Spin
1.
Hold a lure in front of your dog's nose (this can be a food treat, a toy or
target stick, once learnt).
2.
Slowly start to take the lure away from him in a large circular movement.
3.
As he reaches the lure, click and treat.
4.
With each repetition aim to get him a little further before you click and
treat.
5.
eventually he will be able to turn a full circle or 'spin'.
6.
once he is reliably offering the movement every time, you can start to add
the command 'spin'.
7.
As he learns the verbal cue, start to reduce the lure until he can perform the
move on the verbal cue only.
Troubleshooting:
If your dog is not keen to go into the spin movement, practise
first just clicking and treating for following the lure in a straight line. Make sure to
always teach the 'spin' in one direction so as not to confuse him.
Take a bow
1.
Start with your dog in a stand position.
2.
Hold a lure in front of his nose (this can be a food treat or a target stick,
once learnt).
3.
Slowly take the lure down towards the floor and back towards his chest.
4.
As he follows the treat down, click and treat.
5.
repeat, aiming to click and treat as his chest touches the floor but before he
lies down.
6.
As he gets the idea, you can withhold the click for a second or two thus
encouraging him to hold the position.
7.
once he is reliably offering the behaviour every time, you can start to add the command
'playbow'.
8.
As he learns the verbal cue, start to reduce the lure until he can perform the behaviour on
the verbal cue only.
Troubleshooting:
If your dog keeps lying down, click and treat at a much earlier point a few
times before trying again for the actual playbow.
Rollover
1.
Start with your dog in a down position.
2.
Hold a treat between your thumb and first finger and allow him to sniff it.
3.
Slowly move the treat towards his shoulder, keeping it close to his body.
4.
As his nose follows the treat back, click and treat.
5.
repeat, aiming to lure his head a little further round towards his
shoulder each time.
6.
once you have your dog lying on his back, click and drop the treat on the
other side of the dog so that he rolls over to get it.
