Playtime is as important for pets as it is for humans, providing needed mental and physical stimulation, opportunities for human-animal bonding, and a lot of tail-wagging fun!
From award-winning pet publisher TFH Publications this fall comes a new, visual guide to teaching your dog a range of impressive, easy tricks in no time: 50 Tricks to Teach Your Dog: Amaze Your Friends! Impress Your Family! Challenge Your Dog! ($13.95; ISBN: 978-0-7938-0645-4).
This colorful, family-friendly book uses step-by-step photographs to illustrate an assortment of tricks for dogs of all ages and sizes. 50 Tricks to Teach Your Dogstarts with basic training advice, advancing to more complex elements that will help ensure a safe and rewarding experience for the entire family.
Tricks like “Shut the Door,” “Count Out Loud,” “High Five,” “Peekaboo,” and “Take a Bow,” are among the impressive feats that you and your dog will master using positive reward methods that also reinforce the close human-animal bond. A special chapter on “rainy day tricks” helps keep dogs occupied when they’re stuck inside the house.
