To teach your Pudelpointer tricks, even simple ones, you need to get some small snacks, take him to a secluded suitable location and maintain the training sessions to ten to fifteen minutes or the Pudelpointer will start to get tired. Keep in mind when he gets something right give him lots of appreciation and a reward snack, however be mindful not to get him extra excited or he will lose focus.
Teach your Pudelpointer to give you his paw
To teach your Pudelpointer to give you his paw, initially get him to sit, then as you state the word ‘paw’ take his paw in your hand and offer him a snack. Next do it again, and after a few successful tries don’t take his paw so fast. State the word ‘paw’, count to one and after that take it. You should notice that he is bringing his paw upward as you say the word. If he doesn’t then return to stating it at the very same time. Do it a couple of more times then slow your reaction once again. After just a few sessions most Pudelpointers pick this trick up rather easily.
Teach your Pudelpointer to offer you a high five
Like a lot of tricks the high 5 is a continuation of an earlier trick, and in this case the paw trick. Place a snack in between your fingers and lift your hand slightly higher than you’d raise it for the paw trick. Your Pudelpointer will think you wish to do the paw trick and will grab for the treat with his paw as we had instructed him earlier. As he rises you say “high 5” and offer your Pudelpointer the snack. As soon as your Pudelpointer has actually mastered the paw trick this one will most likely be extremely easy to master and with only a few sessions he will be performing it from your hand signal rather than vocal commands.
Teach your Pudelpointer to jump through a hoop
Before you begin this 1 I would just like to ask you to be a little practical and not suspend the hoop too high up as you do not want your Pudelpointer to harm himself while performing the trick. Place your Pudelpointer on one side of a hula hoop, get him to take note of your hand on the opposite side of the hoop. Place a treat in your hand and offer the Pudelpointer the direction to stop sitting. At first he may attempt to walk around or beneath the hula hoop. In the event that this takes place begin once again. Your Pudelpointer desires the treat and will quickly learn that walking around or underneath doesn’t work so he will soon begin going through it. As soon as he does, say “hoop” and offer him the treat. He’ll quickly be leaping through the hoop upon the command of “hoop”. When I first began doing this trick I had a medium sized dog, so I started with the hoop six inches from the ground and gradually increased it to waist height. In the event that you possess a smaller sized dog you might wish to start with the hoop on the ground so he simply goes through the hoop and after that gradually elevate it once he gets used to the trick.
I expect you have enjoyed these 3 tricks you can teach your Pudelpointer. Have patience with your Pudelpointer and most of all, have fun!
