Re: Teaching 'tricks'


Like CS, I use Dreamies and "trained" Pip from a young age to come to the shaking of the packet, which wasn't at all hard to do! If he's in hearing distance he still comes running in.

I can certainly see the sense in training an animal to stand still while being examined either by you or the vet - very helpful and I know that some animals in zoos are trained to do this too.
