Pomeranian Training: How To Teach Your Pet To Perform Tricks

Pomeranian training is more than just teaching a
pomeranian the fundamental obedience commands or
the proper way to potty. Training is in fact,
useful in more ways than that. It can help
prevent different behavior issues or help
eliminate the issue if it has affected your pet
already. And while pomeranians have lesser
possibility of undergoing training to become
working dogs, the breed is more popular for
their desire to amuse their owners by being
around them most of the time, by being very
friendly and by carrying out tricks that can
also please others.

One simple trick that is very easy to teach your
pom is paw. Also called shake hands,, the trick
happens when your pet gives his paw on you. This
trick is possible even if your dog is standing
up, sitting or lying down. To get started with
the training, say the command "paw", take his
paw and put it in your hands. Reward your pet
with a treat and repeat the procedure. Once you
have introduced the command and have tried it a
few times, do not take your pom's paw soon after
you give the command the next time you try the
process. Wait for a second or two and if he
brings his paw up to you, reward him with treat
or praise. If not, then start at the beginning.
Do it a few times and then start increasing the
time between responses again. Continue with the
process until such time in which your dog gets
to figure out how the command works.

The next trick to teach your pet during
pomeranian training is crawl. Training should
begin by having your dog in down position facing
you. Hold a treat right in front of your pet's
nose, give the command "crawl" and then
gradually move the treat in your direction (away
from your pom) while keeping it close to the
ground. When your pet makes any effort to crawl
to have the treat, reward that treat to him
along with praise. Repeat the process until he
masters the command.

Like crawl, roll over starts by having your pet
in down position. Kneel down next to your pet
then hold a treat right in front of his nose.
Say the command roll over and move the treat so
that he'll have to lie on his side and
eventually roll over. Should he make any move to
roll over, reward him with a treat and praise.
This trick may need numerous repetition so you
should be very patient.

Spin or turn around is yet another trick you
might want to include during pomeranian
training. Get your pom to stand in front of you
then hold a treat in front of his nose. Say the
command spin or turn around while moving your
hand with the treat in a circular motion. Guide
your pet in order to complete a circle and once
he has done so, reward him with the treat you're
holding.

The above-mentioned tricks are mostly taught
using a treat however, it's best to cut down the
use of reward to stop him from becoming
treat-dependent.
