Teach Sit Pretty

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Dog tricks Sit Pretty - The trick 'Sit Pretty' is one of my favorite exercises to teach dogs. It is not only an adorable trick, but it has many benefits that make it a must to train. Teaching 'Sit Pretty' increases your dog's balance and body awareness. It also builds your dogs core muscles which protect the spine from injury during dog sports or playing fetch. 'Sit Pretty' is a trick for healthy dogs. If your dog has pre-existing injuries, consult a physical therapist to inquire if this trick is safe for your specific dog.
Most dogs do not have the muscles to be able to sit pretty without support, and it can take 2 weeks to over a month to build the muscles. To do this you can practice short sessions of 'Sit Pretty' daily until your dog builds up the balance and strength to hold the position.

    Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games kzread.infoUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

    This video has really helped me with my cross breed dog Jack he is a 6 year old Border Collie/ German Shepherd. For years he would go unwalked and knew nothing but the back yard. no mental training or physical either. one month ago i took him off my parents hands who obviously could not handle the whining and the high energy of him. Now he goes' for 5 walks a day all lasting for 30 mins apart from his "big" walk of an hour. i have taught him spin, walk by my side, play dead and currently working on sit pretty. this channel has gave me confidence to train him, so thank you.

    My 1 year old Volpino italiano couldn't keep his balance so I thought we had to give up on this trick completely. Watching your video was very helpful, now I let him put one of his paws on the hand I hold the treat with and with that little help he finds the perfect balance. One hour training and we master it pretty good, with a daily training and patience, hopefully we can get perfect. Thank you very much!

    Thank you! This was very helpful. I've been trying to teach my cattle dog pup to "sit pretty" before a "wait" every day while giving him breakfast for weeks/months. It unintentionally evolved from him using my hand to balance during the "paw" or "shake" command. He recently started trying it without support from my hand but slips sometimes on our tile floor. I didn't realize I could be causing him damage by not providing him more traction first or making sure he's sitting straight with his feet planted symmetrically.

    Love this video & send it to my clients all the time for dogs who hurt me when they jump excitedly. Building those doggy abs helps so much & takes the strain off their ACL/legs, they can even take treats more nicely since they don’t have to grab them as they’re falling.

    My first dog was a mixed breed (german shepherd and some kind of sighthound, perhaps whippet, probably other stuff too) and it was very easy to teach her this trick so it never occurred to me that it might be difficult for dogs to do. Then I got my second dog, a (mostly) boston terrier (a little frenchie's in there too), and I saw when I tried to teach her this that she couldn't maintain the balance to do it. I could tell it was because of how she was sitting, she seemed to actually roll back on her bottom instead of resting on her heels like my other dog, but I figured this was just an anatomical issue since she's so rounded and sausage shaped instead of proper dog shaped, so I just gave up on it. It never occurred to me that I could try to teach her to sit differently.

    The difference is she allows to the dog to offer her the behavior which builds a different relationship with the dog. She does not force but allows the dog to choose to give the behavior and she works at the pace of the dog's ability not on her agenda's time frame. I've found her approach extremely helpful for teaching my dog to trust me and to want to please me by doing these kinds of actions but I believe in allowing the dog to offer .

My pup has been checked by a vet and is healthy, yet when I try to do this trick with her she watches my hand and the lure for 20 seconds or so, and then she jumps up and holds on to my arm, even though she doesn't need to jump to get the treat. She doesn't take her feet off the ground until she jumps. I'd really appreciate any tips to mitigate what I am doing wrong if that's possible!
