*He’s almost four
*He’s a Finnish Lapphund
*Very smart
*Eager to learn if food is involved

I’m bored and so is he- any ideas?

Oh- and what are some good tips and tricks for training? Does a clicker really work?

BQ- What are your dogs names and breeds?

I have a Lab and I know that this breed is super smart and I need to train him. He is a black male lab. About 4 years old. He already knows sit, lay down, and jump. I want to teach him to speak, to roll over, to stay, and to stop pulling on the leash.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I have a German Shepherd, 5 years old. She already sits, stays and lies down. What are some fun things I can do with her so she gets exercised either mentally or physically?

I have been thinking about doing a little agility training with my dog. I am not talking about doing actual competitions with him, just letting him get some exercise that way. He is a 12 lb poodle/schnauzer mix that has a lot of energy. Can you recommend some websites to get started? There are SO many sites out there that I want to make sure that I get a good site.
He gets plenty of exercise and isn’t hyper, he just has lots of energy and can jump VERY long distances (he completely jumped over a 6 foot rug without touching anything on it–DD’s toys, LOL).
Oh, and their aren’t any local places. I live in small town USA. LOL

hello!

i have a shih tzu dog, and i am training her tos allreo tricks. she can sit, laydown, roll over, shake a paw and walk on her hind legs allready. what are somothers? and can you send me a link that explains how tto train them? for a best answer, you must add a link your answer, and please write alot of information to it.

thanks!

He’s a mini or toy poodle+chihuahua mix.
I don’t mean basic things like sit, down, etc.
He learns fairly fast (today I taught him to jump through hoops)
I just want some entertaining tricks that he will enjoy?

My mother has seen my increased interest in training my dog for therapy work and bought me a dog-training clicker. She says that my aunt used a similar one to train her labrador and that it worked wonders on him.

One problem…I have no clue whatsoever how a little red plastic clicker can train my dog. She’s very food-orientated and I’m worried that once the treats are taken away, the training will go right out of her brain. I don’t see how adding a small clicking noise will make any more difference.

Any ideas on tricks i could teach my dog, and how|
Many thanks x

I have taught my dog so many tricks, and I want to teach him more~ but I don’t know what else to teach him. I have taught him the following:
sit, stay, lay down, roll over, stop drop and roll, jump up, sit up, kisses, shake, and hand signals for all of them. He really is a smart dog, and I want to teach him more because I hope that someday he will be a showdog. Please give me some tips! Thanks!
