Well..during therapy training we were all asked if any of our puppers could do tricks. Well...to get a dachshund to pass obedience is a trick enough. Needless to say, we said *No*. So the ones who didn't know how to do were shown how, some learned to "sit pretty" but we opted no for that one has dachshund are prone to disc problems and we didn't wnat to exacerbate that. Others learned roll over. Well...we tried the "give paw" during class. nope...wouldn't do it. We felt like looney people watching the dog look at us while we are coaxing him with a treat to give paw. All this week I was working with him alone and guess what..he GAVE PAW..woo hoo. Last night, he even did it without a treat. He was so proud of himself. Hubby couldn't believe it. He said..he must love you, dachshunds just don't perform for anybody. What tricks does your pupper do and how did you get them to do it?
