To teach your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound tricks, even the easy ones, you should carry some of his favorite snacks, take him to a quiet suitable place and try to keep the training sessions to under 15 minutes or your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound will begin to get bored. Take note that when he gets something right offer him lots of praise and a reward snack, however be mindful not to get him excessively ecstatic or he might lose concentration.
Teach your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound to offer you his paw
To get your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound to give you his paw, first get him to sit, then as you say the word ‘paw’ take his paw in your hand and offer him a treat. After that do it again, and after a few times do not take his paw so fast. State the word ‘paw’, count to one and then after that take it. You should observe that he is raising his paw upward as you say the word. If he doesn’t then return to stating it at the same time. Do it a few more times then slow your reaction once again. After a few sessions most Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hounds pick this trick up rather quickly.
Teach your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound to give you a high 5
Like a great deal of tricks the high 5 is a progression of a basic trick, and in this case it’s the paw trick. Place a snack in between your two fingers and raise your hand just a bit higher than you would raise it for the paw trick. Your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound will believe you wish to perform the paw trick and will grab the snack with his paw as we trained him earlier. While he rises you say “high five” and give your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound the snack. Once your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound has actually mastered the paw trick this one should be really easy to understand and with only a couple of sessions he will be accomplishing it on hand signal instead of vocal commands.
Teach your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound to leap through a hoop
Before you start this 1 I would simply like to ask you to be a little practical and not suspend the hoop higher than necessary as you do not really want your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound to hurt himself while doing the trick. Set your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound on 1 side of a hula hoop, get him to take notice of your hand on the other side of the hoop. Hold a treat in your hand and offer the Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound the command to stop sitting. At first he might attempt to go around or beneath the hula hoop. In the event that this takes place start once again. Your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound desires the snack and will quickly learn that going around or under does not get it so he’ll soon begin going through it. If he does, say “hoop” and offer him the treat. He’ll quickly be leaping through the hoop on the command of “hoop”. When I started off teaching this trick I owned a medium sized dog, so I began with the hoop 6 inches from the ground and slowly raised it to waist high. In case you have a smaller sized dog you might desire to begin with the hoop touching the floor so he just goes through the hoop and then gradually raise it as he gets accustomed to the trick.
I trust you have enjoyed learning these 3 tricks you can teach your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound. Have patience with your Bosnian Coarse-Haired Hound and most importantly, have fun!
