To teach your Pungsan Dog tricks, even the simple ones, you should have some good treats, be in a quiet suitable location and always keep the instruction sessions to ten to fifteen minutes or your Pungsan Dog will start to get tired. Take note that when he gets something right give him lots of appreciation and a reward treat, just beware not to get him extra excited or he may lose concentration.
Teach your Pungsan Dog to offer you his paw
To teach your Pungsan Dog to offer you his paw, initially get him to sit, then as you say the word ‘paw’ take his paw in your hand and offer him a treat. And then repeat this, and after a couple of successful tries don’t take his paw so quickly. State the word ‘paw’, count to 1 and then after that take it. You need to discover that he is raising his paw upward as you say the word. If he does not then return to saying it at the same time. Do it a couple more times then slow your response once again. After a few sessions most Pungsan Dogs pick this trick up rather quickly.
Teach your Pungsan Dog to give you a high five
Like a great deal of tricks the high 5 is a progression of an easier trick, in this case it’s the paw trick. Place a snack in your fingers and raise your hand a little higher than you’d do for the paw trick. Your Pungsan Dog will believe you desire to do the paw trick and will reach for the snack with his paw as we taught him earlier. As he rises you say “high five” and offer your Pungsan Dog the snack. Once your Pungsan Dog has actually mastered the paw trick this one will most likely be really simple to master and with only a couple of sessions he will be accomplishing it on hand signal rather than vocal commands.
Teach your Pungsan Dog to leap through a hoop
Before you begin this one I would simply like to ask you to be a little sensible and not hold the hoop higher than necessary as you don’t want your Pungsan Dog to hurt himself while performing the trick. Place your Pungsan Dog to 1 side of a hula hoop, get him to take notice of your hand on the opposite side of the hoop. Place a snack in your hand and give the Pungsan Dog the command to stop sitting. Initially he may attempt to go around or beneath the hoop. In the event that this takes place begin once again. Your Pungsan Dog wants the treat and will soon find out that walking around or beneath doesn’t get it so he will soon begin going through it. When he does, say “hoop” and offer him the treat. He’ll quickly be leaping through the hoop upon the command of “hoop”. When I initially began teaching this trick I had a medium sized dog, so I started with the hoop 6 inches from the ground and gradually increased it to waist height. In case you have a smaller dog you might desire to begin with the hoop touching the floor so he just goes through the hoop and then gradually elevate it more once he gets accustomed to the trick.
I hope you have enjoyed these 3 tricks you can teach your Pungsan Dog. Have patience with your Pungsan Dog and above all, have fun!
