Boxer Insane
Looking for some ideas on how to make training more fun. The obedience commands are important but man does it get booooooring doing the same sit, down, stay, come lessons every day 
.
All the commands Juno knows (or has exposure to--some things we haven't worked on in a while so she probably doesn't remember them!):
Sit
Down
Stay/Wait
Come
Watch Me
Bow
Play Dead
Roll Over
High Five
Shake
Touch (nose to my hand)
Target (I can set like a Cool Whip lid across the room and send her to smack it with her paw)
The problem is trick training is not my strong suit. I get an idea in mind but I have trouble figuring out how to teach it. I do a lot of luring because my mind can not break things down enough in order to shape. =P
SOO for simplicity, how about you guys post your favorite tricks that your dogs do, and a little blurb about HOW you taught it? Even cooler if you have a video of your dog doing it!
