Puppies need more patience and tenderness. Remember to be calm, and patient with your dog when training. When you say “Bang Bang!” your dog will roll over! If your dog knows “Speak” this could also be a good additional step to get your dog to bark once before the roll over.Īfter a couple of seconds release your dog from the rolled over position and give a huge amount of praise and a treat, a really good one because it is a challenge to string multiple behaviours together. The “bang bang” cue is used to get your dog to roll over (or lay down). However once you feel like your dog is mastering each step stop rewarding at the end of the last step and only reward from the next step on. At the start reward each step, you want your dog to understand that they are on the right track during each of the steps. The verbal cue is “Stick ‘em up!” when you say this with the visual cue your dog will sit and beg. The cue is you hold your hand like a gun, like if you were playing cops and robbers! If your dog can already sit and beg and you have established cues you will want to introduce a new cue to trigger sit+beg.
Stick em up dog trick series#
Requirements: A dog that can sit, beg and roll-over (or of your dog can’t roll over, lay down will do), and some really good treats, the ones that your dog gets really excited over!Īs sit and roll over are more simpler tricks I won’t cover these individual steps here at this stage (in the future I will run a series on basic obedience), however you can get a leg up with the Beg command here. However in the start you need to break it all down for them, so reward after each step until the new cues are understood. When they are used to specific cues to perform a behaviour it can be difficult to introduce a new cue, the point of the new cue is to let your dog know that this trick requires more steps to complete. Your dog will want to skip to the part where the treat comes. Be careful not to rush through all the steps and make sure your dog understands that you require more than one step. Teaching a trick that has multiple parts requires a lot of patience. Put all three together and you have the Bang Bang trick. Well, not really, but that could be a scene that is used to describe this trick. The elements of the trick are simple. The basics of the trick are a Texas style hold up style scene, where your dog is the robber and you are the police officer. The “Bang Bang” trick is simple enough in it’s elements, but put them all together and you have an Emmy award winning performance from your dog.
