Kaige learned a new trick...

[lv4dogs]

What a smart pup!


How did you train him to roll over? Did you direct him with a treat until he went over?

Pretty much. I had him lay down with most of his weight leaning into one side or the other (like his first pic. where he is leaning towards the right), then with one hand I held a treat and slowly moved it up & around him, like in a circle then at the same time with the other hand I gently pushed his feet up in the air then I gently pushed his body over too while saying "roll over" at the same time. (holy run on sentance lol)

Good boy..I have not been able to teach SammyJ that, sigh..I will keep trying..lol..

Good job Kaige! Does he have a certain direction that he rolls over on every time? Its weird, Kyra has always rolled to the left and Jack to the right, I was just wondering what the little man is...I have also tried to get action shots...it doesn't work out so well. Anyway, Kaige is so cute, look at that face of concentration

Hmm, we will have to get you a video camera. Just kidding. Good job Kaige, I could tell from those sharp eyes that you were going to be a quick learner.

Congrats Kaige! That is so awesome, he is a quick learner! When you were talking about picking out an Aussie, I didn't really ever know anything about them..I decided to research, and I KNOW that I am going to get one!-someday!
Anyways, Kaige, you are just too adorable!-
