Who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? With
time and patience you can teach your old dog some
new tricks with these tips:
- 5-minute rule (work in short 5 minute chunks
of time)
- Lavish plenty of praise and positive feedback
- Reward your dog with a favorite treat
- Review steps and directions
- End with some playtime
- Have fun and you’ll both be happy
- Be patient and always reward your dog’s
efforts
Keep it simple at first. You can always work up to
more complex tricks after you and your pet master
the most basic commands. (See specific tricks)
