It’s a fantastic trick for your Bedlington Terrier
Constant repeating of this trick will produce efficiency. With time you should stop limiting his head with your hand and permit him to balance the treat on his nose until you state “Paid for.”
He can also be taught to hold the treat in between his teeth and to not swallow it until told to do so. This trick can be made more impressive by holding a conversation with your Bedlington Terrier. For example, you may state: “Pal, old boy, here is a really tasty snack, however it is ‘on trust.'”
Slightly highlight the word “trust” and then say: “I am grateful you dislike consuming things on trust, however this I have just found out has been ‘paid for,'” highlighting the words “paid for.”
Your Bedlington Terrier can likewise be taught to toss the treat after hearing a certain number. To teach this, balance it on his nose and hold his head while you count clearly and intentionally, one, two, three, and after that 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 till he will not toss it up until he hears “three.” It will make it much easier for him if you somewhat highlight the “3” word.
Eventually you can utilize numerous combinations of numbers and he will wait till he hears the highlighted “three.” As you are training him do not make him wait too long before you state “three,” and allow him to consume the snack.

Remember, do not punish your Bedlington Terrier if he can’t master the trick, rather blame yourself for being a poor teacher.:–RRB- In any case, delight in teaching your Bedlington Terrier this trick and have lots of fun along the way.
