Hi, everyone. We're Adriana and Gyro from Gyro Border Collie. And today we're with animal expert to explain how to teach your dog to play dead. To teach your dog to play dead, we'll use treats and the luring technique. What does this technique consist of? We'll guide the dog with the food.
Okay.
If we put the food in front of him, the dog will follow our hand with the food. And that's what we'll do in this skill.
Okay.
We'll make the dog lie down. He has to be in the down position. And we'll guide the dog until he places his rear end in that position.
Okay.
Once he's in that position, we'll reward him. It's important to reward every step in the down position. Tara. We guide and reward when the dog places his rear end in that position.
Okay.
So once we have him in that position, the next step is easy. We keep guiding him until he lies down completely.
Very good.
It's important to work on one side.
Okay.
If you notice he has the habit and it works much better for him to put his butt on this side. So we will work on this skill on this side.
Okay.
If you try to put the treat on the other side and you see that he does not turn his butt, then try it on one of the two sides.
Okay?
So terrify. Terrify.
Good. Very good.
Okay, we continue rewarding this position here.
Very good.
How do we move the hand away? Once the dog is used to it and has done many repetitions and already lies down directly, what we will do is guide it, but from a greater distance.
Okay.
Good. Here.
Okay.
We guide it.
Good.
And we reward it. Love, come here. Come to the ground. Terrify. Let's go to the ground.
Good.
Okay.
Little by little, we will move the hand further away. That is based on many repetitions because the dog will already know what we are asking. Once the dog knows what we are asking, we can begin to introduce the command. In this case, we have the command.
As pum pum, pum pum.
How great. Once the dog has repeated it many times, it will do it on its own from a distance. And you will start introducing the command so that it verbally remembers that skill. I hope you enjoyed it. If you want to know more about canine skills, don't forget to visit our Hero Border Collie Channel. And until next time.
