lol your poodle is very smart
I want to teach Mocha to roll over and play dead...but for some reason he can't grasp the concept of laying down
I know with most dogs, you get them to lay down by bringing the treat to floor, but with Mocha, he's already so low to the ground that he doesn't need to lay down to get to the treat
Sometimes he'll put his front feet down, but still has his little butt in the air

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  |
