    Thanks Emily! This is what I'll be teaching Sparky next.
    LOVED the beginning with Kiko, Splash and Tug crossing paws all at once! Ahhh too cute!

    This is a really helpful video; thank you! One of the things I struggle with is figuring out at what step to introduce the verbal cue (if you are using one?). If you have a chance to include that information in future videos, that would be great. Thanks again for all your videos; it is so great to see the power of positive reinforcement!

Your tutorials on stop barking, fear of strangers, stacking cups, look left, handstand and fetch unusual objects, paw targeting are some of my favourites. My dog learned new behaviours and tricks in a positive and fun way thanks to you. Most of the tricks I've taught him are from your videos. It's amazing how trick training builds confidence and a strong relationship. If you Have a chance check out his videos.

    • @rapsi1322
      @rapsi1322 Před 4 lety

      Whit my dog the most tricks (forward tricks, backward tricks) took as long as shown in the videos - he just needs a few trys and repetitions for every step. But I have never really worked a lot with tricks, where he has to do something on the floor or where he has to stay in a position. So this paw trick took much more repetitions. I am not an expert, but I think it s really up to the experience of your dog, your way of training (If we humans do a lot of faults on our part or not) and the method itself (not every methode works for every dog).

    Hi, Kikopup. I’m a fan of your video and really learn a lot from it!! I would like to know how to teach my dog to use his hand rather than his mouth. He tends to bite the toy whenever I hand him the toy. He knows to raise his hand when I fetch my hand to him ( as I’ve tough him to shake hand). I’ve tried to use different toys but still he like to bite it rather than touch it with his paws. LOL. Really need your advice. Thank you!!

    Hello, Emily. Thank u so much for ur awesome videos. They've helped me a great deal in teaching my Miniature Schnauzer tricks. However, my dog is blind, most likely since birth. When we got him at 3 months old, he was already blind. I tried putting a treat under several things (a small dish, a pad of sticky notes), but he doesn't put his paw on them. He just tries to dig his nose under the item to get to the treat. Do u have any suggestions as to how I can have his paw touch the item? Thank u.

  • @Drummerbaby66

    You are so amazing! You're babies are so cute too!:) I was working with my dog, trying to teach him this but he gets frustrated really easy. He is a wolf/lab mix and he is very well mannered and he knows the basic tricks, but when I try and teach him anything more complicated like this, even slowly, he gets very frustrated... is it something I am doing wrong maybe? Or is there a way I can help him to be less frustrated?
    And thanks for all of the helpful videos!!:)

    @priscillaliang3727 Před 3 lety

    Thank you for this video! Quick question- my puppy is good with paw targeting with buttons from your earlier video, and can differentiate between right and left paw. But I tried rewarding her for only using her right paw for 'cross your paws', and she seems to have regressed to just using her right paw for everything. Is there a verbal cue you're associating with 'cross your paws' that can help with this? The "hi" vs "bye" cue? Thanks!

    • @kikopup
      @kikopup  Před 3 lety

      Yes you could use a verbal cue to give a hint. You can also go back and retrain the other paw from scratch if its getting weaker.

    Hi I've been having a similar problem. My puppy targets with the same paw well but when I try to move the target over she targets it by crossing her paws with the target sandwiched between them lol, or like you say moves so it's in the middle or swaps paw. Did you find a way around this to achieve the trick in the end? : ) xx

    Kikopup, help. I have. A dobie and an Aussie and they cross their leg and in a split second, they shift both legs and chest over to touch the target. I click as soon as the leg crosses but before I can stop the click, they shift their whole body. We're into the 3rd week of teaching, how long does it take?

    • @kikopup
      @kikopup  Před 4 lety +1

      I suggest to try not clicking and just feed treat after treat while they are in the crossed position putting the treats down to the side the dog is crossing. Sometimes putting a frisbee over the leg that they will be crossing over can help teach them to cross and hold.

    • @servicepap
      @servicepap Před 7 lety +1

      Move the target an inch at a time, so the dog will continue touching the target, until the target is on the other side of the leg and on the floor again. When shaping a behavior, break it down into small pieces, and it will go faster.

    I can use some help.... My labrador Indy loves touching a lit for a treat, but she won't cross over. She will touch it when the lit is on her other paw, but moving just a bit causes her to move the paw sideways instead of keeping it in place. What should we do??

    • @kikopup
      @kikopup  Před 4 lety +1

      What Ive done is use a large frisbee as a target first that can be placed over the other paw. That can stop the dog thinking to readjust the other paw
