LEG WEAVE – Teach Your Dog this TRICK – Dog Tricks – Robert Cabral Dog Training

Just started doing this with my 19 month old GSD, he's starting to get the idea. Thank you Robert!!!!

Love it. I have so many ideas now for training my Jindo. You’ve inspired me to work on training my dog to do so many different tasks. We’re both having fun. It’s good for our bonding and growth.

I want too but my dog is taller than my legs, it will be leg crawling instead.

Great video! The fact that he wasn't already polished make the video even more legit!

How many years did it take u to fully train one of your dogs???

This is great! Just watching makes me smile. Now I know how to do this with my boy.

I have a small 2 year old Pomeranian that I've had for two months. He came to me from a show dog breeder and didn't really know much in the way of obedience cues. After I taught him the obligatory 'sit' and 'down' and a couple of other behavioral cues, I wanted to start him on a trick or two.

I'm elderly (70) and disabled in that I can't walk without using canes or a walker. Teaching him to weave while I walked was not an option. I chose to train a figure 8 around my legs while I was sitting.

I've been working with him a few sessions a day for about 10 days. I couldn't see much progress but I didn't give up. Just this week he actually started to respond as if he realized what I wanted.

For those of you who have dogs that pick up on new cues, there may not be quite the thrill when your pooch starts to understand. My dog takes a while to 'get it'. I get a feeling of real satisfaction when Jazz shows improvement. I'm kinda proud I stuck with the training and proud of my fluffy little Pom. 🐕

I taught my dog to weave my legs as I walked first, (using a treat in each hand—but my dog can be moved with just by hand movements), then I taught her to run in a figure 8 around my legs while I was stationary. Then I put the two together. So I start stationary and then walk forward and she continues to weave at first only a couple of steps. As the behavior got better and better and her response became crisper now we added gentle turns right or left. Eventually, I want to start our heeling routine and then ask her for this behavior. She will actively weave and when I stop moving, she will figure 8 around my legs until I ask her to heel again. So I want to be able to transition in and out of this behavior during a heeling routine. Why am I teaching my dog this? Because we can and its fun.

Wow- So cool! Thanks for your insight and tips.

Your the only dog trainer I've ever seen on YouTube 1- explain it correct and 2 – explaining the process and technique correct. I spent years trying to figure this out on my own with trial and error. I'll admit it, no shame in the game. I wish I had contacted someone more experienced in handiling working breeds. Lesson learned now, but great job sir.
