THanks!!! My niece taught him. She would put him in the lay down command (which we did by holding a treat down by the floor) and she rolled him over, put her hand over him and said.. Play Dead...waited a minute then gave him a treat and we say Good Sam! We did that over and over till he got it.
For Bang Bang.. we did Bang Bang then put him in the play dead command. Repeat.... Lots of treats and praise.
My poodle taught himself Bang Bang. He learned from watching Sam that when we said Bang Bang, Sam falls over dead and then gets a treat. So now when we say Bang Bang regardless of where we are .... Martin falls over dead
