Teach your Lagotto Romagnolo the “on trust” trick
State to him, “On trust, on trust,” steadying and limiting his head from moving using 1 hand while holding up a threatening finger with the other and repeatedly saying the words, “On trust, on trust”.
Teach your Lagotto Romagnolo the “paid for” trick
Next, let go of his head, saying “paid for,” and give him a little tap under the chin. This will cause him to toss the snack up and catch it. Naturally, in his first efforts he will not have the ability to catch the snack, but he should be enabled to consume the treat after it hits the ground.
It’s an excellent trick for your Lagotto Romagnolo
Constant repeating of this trick will produce effectiveness. With time you should stop restraining his head with your hand and permit him to balance the treat on his nose till you state “Paid for.”
He can also be taught to hold the treat in between his teeth and to not swallow it until informed to do so. This trick can be made more remarkable by holding a conversation with your Lagotto Romagnolo. For instance, you may say: “Buddy, old man, here is a really yummy snack, however it is ‘on trust.'”
Somewhat highlight the word “trust” and after that state: “I am thankful you dislike consuming things on trust, but this I have just discovered has actually been ‘paid for,'” emphasizing the words “paid for.”
Your Lagotto Romagnolo can also be taught to toss the snack after hearing a specific number. To teach this, balance it on his nose and hold his head while you count clearly and intentionally, 1, 2, 3, and then touch him under the chin. Before he has learned the technique he will toss it up as often at 1, 2, 4, as he will at 1, 2, 3, but he needs to be drilled until he will not toss it till he hears “three.” It will make it easier for him if you somewhat stress the “THREE” word.
After a while you can use many combinations of numbers and he will wait up until he hears the highlighted “3.” As you are teaching him do not make him wait too long before you state “three,” and allow him to consume the treat.
“Trust” and “Paid For” might be a significantly difficult trick for your Lagotto Romagnolo to learn and requires lots of patience from you. Remember, do not penalize your Lagotto Romagnolo if he can’t learn the technique, instead blame yourself for being a lousy teacher.:–RRB- In any case, enjoy teaching your Lagotto Romagnolo this trick and have great deals of fun along the way.
