Stupid Dog tricks I love stupid dog tricks1 I've taught a lot of them to my dog such as balancing a biscuit on his nose, bark on command, begging for food, etc... I wonder what other kinds of stupid dog tricks people have taught their dogs. Does anyone have some cute, funny or very stupid ones they want to share? |
Yeah! I would like to try more tricks for Snoodles! Will try the biscuit on the nose bit! Sounds like fun! Pat |
I just taught Sully, by YT's advice, to beg yesterday. He's so sharp at it and I'm so proud! I would love to know what tricks and HOW they can be taught! I love getting Sully to learn new things. Bark on command? How is that done? |
Ranger knows how to "sit up" which looks like begging, he plays dead when he hears/sees "bang bang", and of course knows come, sit, stay, lay, rollover, speak, shake, and stand. They are such smart little boogers!! |
Can't wait to see your Yorkies on Letterman, yorkieagility! :) How long does it take for you to teach them one of those tricks? |
My dog loves to open presents. I will wrap up a toy and she will dig and dig unil its open. Silly, but I think its cute to watch her. :) |
My niece taught Gus how to do what she calls nosies. It is the Eskimo kiss. I thought he would just lick her but he rubs her nose with his. Another trick he does is untie my shoes for me. He started that one on his own. Now I tell him I want to relax and he undoes them for me. |
Sweetie can "turn a little twirl", shake, lay down, sit pretty (begging?), roll over, and she will speak with barking (it's really cute!). She also gives grandma & grandpa "sugar" before we leave their house. Something she does that we didn't teach her is what we call the "Sweetie Shuffle". She scuffs her back legs back, one at a time, twisting her body as she does it - it kind of looks like "moon walking" - but much cuter than Jacko :wink: . She does it when she wants our attention or wants to play. Cyndi |
It doesn't take long at all to teach these little sweeties tricks! A day on each one is all it took Snoodles to learn them. I wasn't sure about the jumping through the hoop thing, abut she took right to it. Just had to follow my hand with the treat in it. She looks so cute when she is dancing, and showing off in her dresses! Gottta Love 'Em! Pat |
My husband will sit a football on his knee, like you would place it for a field goal kick. He has taught Lillie to run at it and hit it with her nose and send it across the room. BTW, she has figured out how to pick the full sized football up by the small end and drag it around the house with her! |
We tell Chachi would you rather be (someones Name) or dead using the gun signal and he plays dead. Thats our best stupid trick so far but we are always looking for new ones. |
Lucy knows kiss kiss (where she attacks our faces with kisses!) We have taught her to count to 4 for treats by giving paw for 1 2 3 and 4, we tried to teach her 'too far' when she cant be bothered to bring toys etc to us, but she imitated our voices! :animal-sm |
Wow! You guys have taught you dogs a lot of neat and fun tricks! |
dog tricks Wow !! I'm getting an inferiority complex.... I have an 18 wk. baby girl, whom I've had since 12 wks. and all I have been able to teach her in this time is "sit". For the last 2 consecutive weeks we've been working on "lay down" but I can't get her to do it. I try gently pushing her down and showing her the treat as I lower it to the floor, but nothing. I tried by starting in the sitting position then taking her front legs and bringing them forward, but she resists . I have praised her, I give her treats..no success..I have suceeded in getting her to run the other way when she sees me coming with the treats.. so.. since this has become a torture session for both of us, I've decided to stop for a while.. |
...sticking my nose in a little here.... Heya! I just thought I'd stick my nose into this thread for a second and link you to a thread I put up yesterday in "My Yorkie!" with videos of my Sully doing his little tricks! :-) |
How did you teach Chachi to fall down and play dead when you pretend shot her? I want to teach Snoodles that, baut don't ;know how to go about it! Thanks! Pat |
Mybirdie2003- This was an easy trick for us to teach. We always use the gun hand signal and start by saying dead. Then we would roll him on his back. Followed by giving him praise and treat. It took about three or four days of that and then he just started to roll over on his back on his own. |
Thanks! Chachi"s mom! I appreciate that! She will play dead, so hopefully, she will learn to do it with the sign for a gun! Ha! Will let you know how that goes! I have to tell you the funny thing-----she will do all her tricks for the same food that is in her dish! So, it must be the interaction they like! It's funny, though! I can walk over to her dish pick up some food out of it,and she goes crazy to do her tricks! |
Mybirdies2003- Well its gonna be real easy for you to teach if she already plays dead. Just start using the hand signal when you say it. Then swich over to only using the hand signal. Chachi caught on to this quick. |
Oh! Oh! I am so excited to do it! Will let you know how it goes! I just didn't know how one did it! Thanks! Pat |
Passionfruition Your yorkie is so cute. Love those clip! |
Chachi"s Mom! It worked! I did the gun sign, and said bang! And down she went and played dead! Can't believe it! It was wonderful! Thank you so much! Now, I need her to go down with just the hand signal, huh? That should come easy once she knows the gun signal. She went down everytime, though! They are such cuties! Pat |
Thats great that she got that so quick. It sounds like she is very teachable when it comes to these tricks. Did you happen to see the post about tricks in the training section. Passionfruitation wrote it. It was a really good article about teaching them different tricks. On the dead trick they had the dog crawling before he rolls over and plays dead. Definitely gave me some new ideas. Take care. |
Pita was "sitting" for about a month then I don't know what happened ... now she bounces backwards and act annoyed when we ask her to sit?? I need to work on some tricks, Pita's falling behind!! |
Thank's Chachi! Always like praises about our pets! I will have to visit that sight when I get through---never even saw it! I'm sure it must be neat. Snoodles now sits, begs, lays down, dances, rolls over, crawls, jumps through the hoops, and now plays dead with the gun signal! Now isn't she talented? Ha! Ha! Am going to try to put on some pictures of her today. I'm not too good at it, so may not come through! Pat |
