It’s an excellent trick for your Finnish Lapphund
Constant repetition of this training will produce effectiveness. Gradually you should stop limiting his head with your hand and allow him to stabilize the snack on his nose until you state “Paid for.”
He can also be taught to hold the treat between his teeth and to not swallow it till told to do so. This trick can be made more remarkable by holding a conversation with your Finnish Lapphund. For example, you may state: “Friend, old boy, here is a very yummy snack, but it is ‘on trust.'”
Somewhat emphasize the word “trust” and after that say: “I am pleased you do not like eating things on trust, however this I have just discovered has been ‘paid for,'” emphasizing the words “paid for.”
Your Finnish Lapphund can likewise be taught to toss the snack upon hearing a specific number. To teach this, balance it on his nose and hold his head while you count clearly and deliberately, one, two, three, and then tap him under the chin. Before he has actually learned the technique he will toss it up as frequently at one, two, four, as he will at one, two, three, however he must be drilled until he will not toss it until he hears “3.” It will make it simpler for him if you somewhat emphasize the “THREE” word.
After a while you can utilize lots of combinations of numbers and he will wait until he hears the highlighted “3.” As you are training him do not make him wait too long prior to you say “three,” and permit him to eat the snack.
“Trust” and “Paid For” may be a considerably difficult trick for your Finnish Lapphund to perfect and requires a lot of patience from you. Remember, do not punish your Finnish Lapphund if he can’t perfect the technique, instead blame yourself for being a poor teacher.:–RRB- In any case, take pleasure in teaching your Finnish Lapphund this trick and have great deals of fun while you’re at it.
