Tips for Training Your Poodle

Posted July 27th, 2009 by admin

Training your dog Poodle tricks is the simplest way to make your pet more lovable, smart, and rewarding. Using praises and tiny treats as a reward will drive your pet more to follow and remember each trick you introduce to him.

But watch out for practicing those new tricks for a while or he is going to get bored, meaning everything you have taught him will just fly out in the air.

Start by the basic Poodle tricks like shake hands, turn around, lay down, and so on. Here are the simple tricks you and your dog will like : Shake Hands. Have your dog sit on the floor facing you, say shake hands and take his paw with your hand. Hold his paw, say good dog as an indication of appreciation of following you and then let go. Repeat the activity after a jiffy but don’t take his paws this time.

If he doesn’t reply to it, take your Poodles paws again, repeat the method till the point that he replies to the command. Let your Poodle stand up facing you for him to see a treat in your hand.

Stand still, say turn around, lead his nose around with the treat so he walks in a circle. When he is back facing you, praise him and give him the treat. Let him sniff the treat you are holding but don’t let him have it. Lower the treat to the floor while your dog follows it down, too. Be bound to say lay down as your dog starts to lower himself. Only give him the treat after he has dropped himself all of the way on the floor, and repeat the words many times. After your Poodle has learned to lay down, you can practice him with stay.

It is OK to let your dog stay for fifteen or twenty mins or maybe to go to sleep, for it is useful when he desires to relax once in a while. Give him the treat while he is lying down and not after he is getting up. Let your dog lay down, hold a treat just in front of his nose and say crawl. If he starts to stand up, say crawl again while pulling the treat away, keeping it low close to the ground. When he moves even a centimeter or two without standing up, praise him and reward him with the treat.

Select a game that your Poodle likes to play, like catch with a ball, or hide and seek with a toy. Need to play? And show him the ball or toy. Then play the game as his reward for learning talk. Easy Poodle tricks like those discussed above work because words are being put with something your dog does. Pretty shortly, each time your dog hears the words you frequently say like shake hands and turn around, he will be able to just give you his paw or walk in a circle. At about that point, give him a cuddle, rub his ears, give him a treat and say, Good boy. As he merits the praise and dogs love that.
