Optional Tricks - Novice

If you would prefer to not teach a certain trick from any of the "Novice" tricks, here is a list of tricks that we will either not be doing, or will be doing in the future (I'm not telling which is which.. neener neener). And these are tricks from the book that qualify for the Novice trick title.

1. 3-2-1 Let's Go!
2. Beginning Disc Dog
3. Doggy Push-Ups
4. Drop it
5. Fetch
6. Get Your Leash
7. Hockey Goalie
8. Hoop Jump
9. Jump for Joy
10. Jump over a bar
11. Jumper over my knee
12. Peekaboo!
13. Pull on a rope
14. Speak
15. Take a Bow
16. Tunnel
17. Walk the Dog

For the trick challenge, please only video tape an optional trick for one that you are replacing. Please email me if you have any questions, or need clarification on any of the tricks. Thank you!!!

  2. 1. 3-2-1 Let's Go = You and your dog stand side by side (or crouching), you count down 3, 2, 1 and at Let's Go (or whatever you want to use) you "race off together". Basically your dog stays and runs at release word.

    2. Pushups = Your dog alternating between sitting up and laying down.

    3. Hockey goalie = Dogs stands in front of net and catches anything that's thrown to him

    4. Peekaboo! = Dogs comes through your legs (from behind you) and pokes its head through (and looks at you)

    5. Walk the dog = Dog walks beside you carrying its own leash, or walking beside you holding another dogs leash in its mouth (and walking it).
