Your Dalmatian can also be taught to toss the treat upon hearing a specific number. To teach this, balance it on his nose and hold his head while you count clearly and deliberately, 1, 2, 3, and after that nudge him under the chin. Before he has actually learned the technique he will toss it up as frequently at 1, 2, 4, as he will at 1, 2, 3, however he must be drilled up until he will not toss it till he hears “three.” It will make it easier for him if you slightly highlight the “THREE” word.
After a while you can use numerous combinations of numbers and he will wait till he hears the highlighted “3.” As you are training him do not make him wait too long before you say “three,” and permit him to eat the snack.

Keep in mind, do not penalize your Dalmatian if he can’t master the trick, rather blame yourself for being a poor teacher.:–RRB- In any case, take pleasure in teaching your Dalmatian this trick and have lots of fun while you’re at it.
