Dog Trick of the Day

Does your dog know some pretty cool tricks?  Well maybe one of those tricks can be getting you a tissue whenever you sneeze!   This trick is one that can amaze your friends when they sneeze and your dog brings them a tissue! You can also do this trick with a convincing fake sneeze!

Requirements:

Make sure your dog knows Take It

Remember:

A dog's attention span is about an hour, so don't make them bored.

Supplies:

Tissue
Dog
Clicker
Tissue box
Treats

Achoo!  Can I have a Tissue?:

1. Give the dog a tissue and say Take It.  Click and treat him/ her for taking it and holding it.  You may have to do this a few times before they actually Take It if Take It is a new trick.
2. Take a step back and have him/ her bring it to you.  Click and treat him/ her for moving to you with the tissue in his/ her mouth.
3. Introduce the tissue box by pulling out a tissue and laying it on top of the box.  Click and treat him/ her for taking it off the box.
4. Gradually tuck the tissue in so that the dog has to pull out the tissue to get his/ her click and treat.
5. Replace the old cue Take It with the new cue Achoo!  Do this by saying the new cue right before the old cue.  Click and treat the dog for beginning the behavior as you sneeze.
6. Great job, you taught the dog to bring you a tissue as you sneeze!

WARNING:

The tissue will be wet from dog slobber!
