Unusual dog tricks
1. Unusual Dog Tricks
Dogs are extremely intelligent creatures, so it’s no surprise
they can pick up new tricks like fetching a ball or swimming
with little practice. Once in a while, we find a noteworthy
story of a rather impressive canine who enjoys staying
active just like their pawrents.
2. Boardsporting Buddies
Some dogs just love the feel of their ears blowing in
the wind. Tyson, the skateboarding Bulldog, has
become a video legend. Once in a while, we see an
adventurous pup pull some tubular moves. But it’s not
that surprising because we’ve even seen some dogs
“hang ten” at the World Dog Surfing Championship in
Pacifica, CA. For some of us, teaching our dogs to ollie
may be out of the question, but with some patience
and treats, it’s totally possible!
3. Go Fetch…Me a Drink!
Dogs are typically known for fetching a ball or a newspaper. It’s so kind of our dogs to lovingly bring us a ball to play
with or some reading material if we’re bored. But we’re in the 21st century! Why not ask your pup to go fetch you a
drink — one that’s not that’s bottled at least. With tools like this Smart Collar, you can add “get me a drink” to
your dog’s list of tricks.
4. Doggy Dining
Dogs have a history of hunting, herding and even
finding culinary treasures — like the famous Italian
truffle. Some dogs have amazing work ethic! It’s even
more impressive when a dog actually puts a whole
lobster tail on the table for you. Co-founder of
Devocean Co., Alex Schulze, offers some tips on how
you can get your dog to fetch a lobster. He gives a lot
of praise to his black Labrador Retreivers for their
underwater adventures as they dive for these
scrumptious lobsters.
5. Laundry List
Most dogs might not know how to fold your laundry, but a lot of dog breeds can go fetch that laundry sitting in the
bin. It might actually make a great exercise each week as you tell your dog to go fetch your t-shirts and bring them
to you. All you need is to replace toys with a balled up sock or another article of clothing. Then, you can reward
them as they drop it into the laundry basket.
6. Double Dutch
Fido can easily go fetch a ball, but it’s a little harder
to make them learn how to jump rope. One dog has
some impressive skills to beat. On Good Morning
America, Geronimo impressed with his jumpy prowess.
It would certainly be hard to teach most dogs how to
skip rope, but teaching your dog to jump over smaller
hurdles is a great way to train them.
7. There’s always something new or interesting that your pups can learn. Do
your dogs have any interesting skills we should know about?
