STILL MORE TRICKS
Walk Back
-
and hop
this is not a natural act for a dog - but it is easy to teach
Sidestepping
as in 'back' your dog can not see the obstacles
they follow your signals - trust - teach 'walk back' first
Kiss
-
-
Can you take food out of your dog's mouth - if you can - they will be gentle removing food from yours - if you insist!
Bring Me
your ball
your leash
my keys
your frisbee
fetch with a wrinkle - picking up toys and dropping them into the toy box is a natural extention
with the multible frisbees - 'drop it' is a time saving command
Border Collies respond well to treat training-referred to as 'soft' dogs
harsh discipline like displays of anger are inappropriate, as is any physical discipline
take extreme care- elephants got their memories from Border Collies
