To teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen tricks, even the easy ones, you need to have in hand some delicious treats, be in a quiet suitable location and manage to keep the learning sessions to under 15 minutes or the Gran Mastin De Borinquen will begin to get bored. Don’t forget that when he gets something correct offer him lots of praise and a reward treat, just take care not to get him over thrilled or he may possibly lose concentration.
Teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to give you his paw
To get your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to give you his paw, first get him to sit, then as you state the word ‘paw’ take his paw in your hand and offer him a snack. Then repeat this, and after a few tries don’t take his paw so fast. Say the word ‘paw’, count to 1 and then after that take it. You ought to see that he is raising his paw up as you say the word. If he does not then go back to stating it at the very same time. Do it a few more times then slow your reaction again. After two or three sessions most Gran Mastin De Borinquens pick this trick up quite quickly.
Teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to offer you a high 5
Like a lot of tricks the high five is a continuation of a basic trick, and in this case it’s the paw trick. Hold a snack in between your two fingers and lift your hand a little bit higher than you’d do for the paw trick. Your Gran Mastin De Borinquen will believe you desire to do the paw trick and will grab for the treat with his paw as we taught him previously. As he rises you state “high 5” and offer him the snack. Once your Gran Mastin De Borinquen has actually mastered the paw trick this one will most likely be extremely simple to learn and with just a few sessions he will be performing it from your hand signal instead of your voice.
Teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to jump through a hoop
Before you start this one I would just like to ask you to be a little reasonable and not hold the hoop higher than necessary as you do not really want your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to injure himself while doing the trick. Set your Gran Mastin De Borinquen to 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 Gran Mastin De Borinquen the direction to stop sitting. At first he might attempt to go around or beneath the hula hoop. If this happens begin again. Your Gran Mastin De Borinquen wants the snack and will soon learn that going around or underneath does not work so he’ll soon start going through it. If he does, say “hoop” and give him the treat. He’ll soon be jumping through the hoop upon the command of “hoop”. When I began doing this trick I owned a medium sized dog, so I started with the hoop 6 inches from the ground and slowly brought it to waist height. If you own a smaller dog you may want to start with the hoop on the ground so he just goes through the hoop and then gradually elevate it more once he gets accustomed to the trick.
I know you have enjoyed learning these 3 tricks you can teach your Gran Mastin De Borinquen. Have patience with your Gran Mastin De Borinquen and above all, have a good time!
