dog-trick-by-CRYROLFE.jpg When you take your dog to obedience training, you are attempting to teach your dog some basic dog behaviors that are necessary for a safe and happy existence with your dog.

Without a good grasp of the basic dog commands, you won’t have a good way of communicating with your dog — at times when it matters the most.

On the other hand, teaching your dog a new dog trick is a bit different.  A dog trick is an optional dog behavior that can strengthen your bond with your dog and enrich your dog’s day-to-day life. Plus, dog tricks are fun!

 

Ready To Teach Your Dog A New Dog Trick?

If you’ve got the basic dog commands down, and now you’re ready to move on to some more advanced dog tricks, just remember that it can take some time to learn a new trick.

So be patient… and have fun in the process of teaching your dog each new dog trick.

For example, it took us over a year to get our first dog to do the dog trick Roll Over.

Here’s a collection of the best tips & videos for teaching your dog to roll over.

We would practice with her and practice with our dog.  When we realized she was not getting it, we decided to put it on the back burner for awhile.  We revisited that same dog trick now and then, until one day she finally got it. When we started to teach our second dog the Over command, she picked it up within a couple of weeks!

 

Easy Dog Tricks vs Difficult Dog Tricks

Here are some easy dog tricks that you should try first (with videos!):

  • Shake Hands
  • Turn Around
  • Crawl
  • Speak
  • Play Dead
  • Roll Over
  • Take A Bow
  • Say Hello
  • Go Back
  • Yawn
  • Wave
  • Quiet
  • Which One?
  • Head Down
  • Go To Bed
  • Find The Treasure
  • High Five
  • Touch
  • Ring A Bell
  • Cross Your Paws
  • Circle

When you’re ready to teach your dog some more difficult dog tricks, here are a few (also with videos!):

  • Dance
  • Fetch A Diaper
  • Flush The Toilet
  • Save My Manicure
  • Pour Me A Beer
  • Bowl A Strike
  • Speak
  • Ride A Tandem Bike
  • Balance A Treat On Your Nose
  • Jump Through My Arms

About Me

LynnetteI like to help Dog Parents find unique ways to do things that will save time & money -- so I write about "outside the box" Dog Tips and Dog Hacks that most wouldn't think of. I’m a lifelong dog owner -- currently have 2 mixed breed Golden Aussies that we found abandoned on the side of the road as puppies. I've always trained my own dogs and help friends train theirs, as well. Professionally, I worked at a vet and have several friends who are veterinarians -- whom I consult with regularly. (And just because I love animals so much, I also worked at a Zoo for awhile!) I've been sharing my best ideas with others by blogging full-time since 1998 (the same year that Google started... and before the days of Facebook and YouTube). My daily motivation is to help first-time dog owners be better prepared from the first day your new puppy enters your home. I like to help dog owners understand what's 'normal' and what you can expect in terms of living with and training your dog -- how to get through the ups & downs of potty training, chewing, teaching commands, getting your dog to listen, and everything else that takes place during that hectic first year! When I'm not training, walking, grooming, or making homemade treats for my dogs, you will find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I've written over 500 articles for dog owners on this site! Many of them have upwards of 200K shares.
