Good boy

By Anonymous - 23/01/2025 15:00 - Australia

Today, I taught my dog to "give me his paw" as a cute trick. Now he won’t stop doing it. Anytime I try to eat, work, or sit down, I’m ambushed by a very proud dog pawing at my leg for treats. FML

I'd assume that when the treats stop coming, he'll stop doing it.

When you train a dog to do something you have to add a command word or gesture to it (both preferably). Never treat a dog for throwing behaviours at you in the hope of a treat. The dog needs to learn that the order is command >> behaviour >> reward (a treat or a hug or a "good boy")
