Crossing Paws Trick 1st Month -- Mar 08, 2011

Video of Roddy, then Echo, & the crossing your paws trick, as demo'ed at kikopup on youtube. This trick training is a friendly challenge with TeamBeagle, curious to see how Bob and Brew are doing with this.

Roddy developed a bad habit of just shifting his body to the right when touching with his left paw. Initially I was just working with his left paw, trying to get a cross. So, I've backed up and now am trying to teach both left and right paws, straight ahead and then gradually introduce the crossing. Echo has the cross with left paw learned fairly well & we working hard on the right.

Another update in a month.
