You need to adhere to a specific feeding routine for your dog. He has to know when the food will arrive and it should be on schedule, but he also needs to know when the food will be removed again.

Encourage your dog to be as active as possible. Dogs can become bored very easily. When a dog is bored, he will be hard to train.

As a result, your dog will roll over. As he is rolling over say, “roll over” and praise them immediately when they do. Have patience since your dog may not get the trick quickly. However, once he does, he’ll be the center of attention at the dog park.<\/p>\n
