*jax* Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 With Elka i lifted her paw saying 'paw' and then gave a treat. After a few goes she was lifting her paw and looking eagerly for her treat. We are now up paw, other paw and two paws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 With Elka i lifted her paw saying 'paw' and then gave a treat. After a few goes she was lifting her paw and looking eagerly for her treat. We are now up paw, other paw and two paws I'm with you on this one. Lift the paw and say paw simultaneously, and then give the treat. Not known a dog yet that did not pick this up quickly. Both mine will do paw, other paw, then get a treat. Happy dogs!!!

lebe03 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 As above lift the dogs paw with one hand saying paw and give a treat with the other hand. After a short while place your hand out and say paw and the dog should lift it paw you then give treat with other hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskylynz Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 As above. That's what I did with Shadow, he soon picked up on it. He'll often give paw now without been asked lol. Always after a treat lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mobezilla Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 For anyone else interested, the way Cloud learned was by having him sit and holding a treat in a fist in your hand in front of him, and having him dig his muzzle into your hand trying to get the treat, and then he lifted his paw to try and dig the treat out, and then open your hand and let him have the treat while saying 'paw' or 'shake'. Yuki learned the normal way by holding my hand out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedJasper Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 All of mine throw paws and were all taught the same way. Take the paw saying paw and reward with a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To answer your question about what other tricks. There are a ton of tricks out there to teach. I started off with the basics when Cally was extremely young- stay, come, sit, lay down, paw, other paw, roll over. She can now do: jump (over something), up (onto something), sit pretty (on hind legs), paws up or hug (jumping up with paws on my chest), bow, bang (just learning it now which is play dead). She also knows down (off something), wait (to go out doors etc.), leave it (don't touch), drop it.... there are sooo many things you can teach them and although they can be stubborn sometimes, they love learning new stuff!
