Training crawl... when other tricks are already well established. Omg. Blade has just had me in stitches.

I taught my last dog to crawl fairly easily but Blade is so big and gangly and heavy and probably finds smaller, more 'delicate' moves a bit more difficult.

So Im bending over a bit to ask him to down. Blade shakes one paw. Then the other. No Blade. We are doing down, not shake. No mum, I am quite sure you want me to shake. What about this hand? Huh? High enough for you? No Blade, down! Shake mum!

*straightens up for a breather*

Down Blade, doooooooown. Roll Mum? Roll, roll, roll, roll. Rooooooooll! Oh... roll this way? Shake?

*phew*

Blade.

Down.

Blade lies down. Thank the GODS! Without flopping over and rolling away.

Oh trust me. Blade knows down. When I dont have treats, he will just down, and shake, and roll, and sit, and stand and etc etc etc. When I have treats, he knows we are probably doing something different. Hence, the enthusiasm.

Tomorrow. We will learn crawl..... :p
 
My dog does it all the time when I have a treat in my hand xD He just wants to get a treat as quick as he can so just does everything he can and doesn't care what I say :P
 
Ohhh Pheeeeewwwww!!! So it isn't just Oka? I doubt Oka will ever learn /crawl/, i just know she will just give me that look of 'why should i do that if i have 4 legs to walk on?'
 
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Blade sounds alot like Scout! Try everything she knows first! LOL And Oliver, when he's confused, just backs around or through my legs :LOL: Which causes some hilarity, when I'm not expecting it and end up face down on the floor, which he thinks is sooo much fun! a wrestling match ensues :love:
 
Blade is crawling about 1.5m and being treated on the way, without standing up. Hoping we can phase out the treats after every step, to just at the end of a few steps, sometime this week :)
