Trained behavior patterns, popularly known as tricks are fun for canines and
their masters. This book shows dog owners how to train an animal to perform both
simple and more complicated tricks. The authors begin with four basic
commands--sit, down, stand, and stay--that all dogs should know and obey. From
there they progress to behaviors such as wave, sit up, bow, jump through a hoop,
and weave through legs.
Instructions for each of the book's 25 tricks are presented with tips to help
owners work through problems, and suggestions for putting the animal's training
to effective use--just for fun, in competitive shows, for roles in films, and
many other situations. The dog-and-master team that progresses all the way
through this volume's advanced exercises will be capable of public performance!
Not every dog owner will want to go that far, but all dog owners can profit from
the know-how that they'll find in these pages. 150 instructive how-to color
photos, and a wealth of practical tips will make training easier for both master
and pet.
