Yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks
|
My dog is 11 years old and I wanted to teach her tricks as a way to keep her mind alert as she ages, as well as provide an outlet for energy when there's bad weather outside.
I've been working from the book for 1 week and so far my dog (a chihuahua) has learned 2 new tricks. Author was right about using "good" treats to motivate to learn.
I chose this book in particular because the "look inside the book" feature showed a good, easy to read layout, detailed pictures that illustrates each step of the trick, and also some "troubleshooting" issues that you might encounter as you take your dog through the trick. Oh, afteryour dog masters a particular trick, the author tells you what additional tricks you can teach your dog to build upon the trick just learned....she really does a great job in this book and I would def. buy it for a gift, as well as purchase addtl training books written by her.
PS - I have no experience training dogs and have never been through obedience training; this book is more than fine for beginners. The book breaks down tricks by simple obedience tricks (sit, stay, down, etc.) as well as 3 addtl levels of tricks (intermediate, advanced, expert), so you know which tricks are at an appropriate level for your dog.
Have fun! |
