Quick Tricks

This was meant for a competition but it's a too long and too big, it needed to be 30 seconds. This took me along time to get right so rather than discard it I'd post it here. This is only a small preview of what he can do.

Barney is a 4 year old English springer spaniel.

@sickJNR Springers are wonderful and No, he was not interested in food he done things because I asked him too, many times the reward was just a pat on the head. In this video I had no treats, balls or anything he liked because I was not able to give him something while holding the camera, instead once the video was done his reward was he got to play ball.

my ess does a trick, i let him of his lead and he dissapears into hedgerow for a few hours. He also likes rolling in fox poo or a dead rabbit. I still love him tho.

@IIIREFLEXIIII I spent allot of time with him, everything I did was done through the strong bond we had. The best thing to do is just work with your dog, don't expect things to happen right away but enjoy it, never get mad or angry or even frustrated because your dog is doing it wrong or not even doing it.

For ideas look around youtube, mostly kikopup and you'll find lots of ideas for things to teach your dogs sometimes even how to do them.

@ryanair737400 Yep, we never saw him do it but he became sick and then later found he got twisted gut, hen they opened him up they found plastic stuck inside like the type you put your sandwich's in the plastic wrap. Oddly mine never was, it was rare to see him eat things other than what was given to him, I feel this was a one off and was the result of what happened.
