Teach your Chinese Imperial Dog the “on trust” trick
State to him, “On trust, on trust,” steadying and restraining his head from shifting using one hand while holding up an intimidating finger with the other and repeatedly saying the words, “On trust, on trust”.
Teach your Chinese Imperial Dog the “paid for” trick
Next, let go of his head, stating “paid for,” and give him a little nudge under the chin. This will cause him to toss the treat up and catch it. Of course, in his earlier attempts he won’t be able to catch the snack, however he must be permitted to eat the snack after it hits the floor.
It’s a terrific trick for your Chinese Imperial Dog
Continuous repetition of this trick will produce efficiency. Over time you should stop restraining his head with your hand and allow him to balance the snack on his nose till you say “Paid for.”
He can also be taught to hold the snack in between his teeth and to not swallow it until told to do so. This technique can be made more impressive by holding a discussion with your Chinese Imperial Dog. For example, you might state: “Buddy, old man, here is a very delicious snack, however it is ‘on trust.'”
Somewhat emphasize the word “trust” and then say: “I am glad you do not like eating things on trust, however this I have actually just found out has actually been ‘paid for,'” emphasizing the words “paid for.”
Your Chinese Imperial Dog 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, 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 1, 2, 4, as he will at 1, 2, 3, but he should be drilled up until he will not toss it till he hears “3.” It will make it much easier for him if you somewhat emphasize the “3” word.
In time you can utilize numerous combinations of numbers and he will wait until he hears the emphasized “three.” As you are training him do not make him wait too long prior to you say “three,” and allow him to consume the treat.
“Trust” and “Paid For” may be a considerably hard trick for your Chinese Imperial Dog to perfect and needs a lot of persistence from you. Remember, do not penalize your Chinese Imperial Dog if he can’t master the trick, instead blame yourself for being a poor teacher.:–RRB- In any case, enjoy teaching your Chinese Imperial Dog this trick and have great deals of fun while you’re at it.
