Spin Around in a Cirle
Your dog needs to know: target to learn this exercise.If your dog knows how to follow a finger target or target stick, this is a easy one to teach your dog. Start out by getting your dog to follow the target while you draw a circle to the right or left. After a few repetitions, you start reducing the help from the target, by just giving a little starting help, and soon you should be able to remove the target all together. As soon as the dog knows what to do, you start putting a name on the excercise, like dance :) You can also teach your dog to spin around in a circle by shaping.
