Our beagles may seem stubborn at times, but they are quite intelligent, and with the right
0:05
motivation, it's really easy to teach them new things. So, in this video, we will talk about 7 cool tricks and how you can teach them to your beagle
0:17
Number 1. Give kisses I don't think there's anything more adorable than getting kisses from your cuddle monster
0:25
Be it a lick or a peck, you can actually teach your beagle to kiss you on your command
0:30
And it's quite easy. Simply dab some peanut butter on your cheek and say the command word, kiss
0:37
Then lean towards your beagle and let them lick it. After they are done licking, praise them and give them a treat
0:43
Gradually, stop using the peanut butter. Just give them treats every time they lick your cheeks on your command
0:49
By rewarding their behavior, your beagle would soon shower you with kisses whenever you say kiss
0:55
Cool, right? Number two, bark on command. Beagles are vocally very expressive
1:02
They naturally love to bark. So teaching them to bark on your command
1:07
won't be that difficult. First, create a situation that makes your beagle bark
1:12
like ringing the doorbell In some cases barking like a dog in front of them may also work Give it a try and let me know your beagle barks back to you As your dog barks say the command word speak or bark and praise your beagle and give them a treat
1:27
Repeat this several times until your beagle understands it and barks on your command
1:33
However, I highly recommend teaching them the quiet command to control their barking
1:39
Moving on to number three, high five. Well, who doesn't want their four-legged buddy to help you celebrate with a high five
1:47
And it looks super cool. To teach your beagle high five, make them sit first
1:52
Then place the treat in a tight fist and hold it slightly above your dog's nose
1:58
Then wait for them to paw your fist. When they lift their paw, say high five
2:04
And when they touch your fist, give them the treat and praise them
2:08
After practicing the command for a couple of days, start keeping your hand flat and without
2:14
holding the treat. 4. Crawl This trick can be a little difficult to teach
2:20
but it's totally worth it as they look super adorable doing it
2:25
Start when your dog is lying down. It would really help if your beagle already knows the lie down command
2:31
Show them their favorite treat and hold it low to the ground slightly away from your dog the word crawl And if your dog crawls correctly while trying to reach the treat then reward them
2:43
If he doesn't, then try again. Once your dog understands the command, slowly increase the distance
2:50
Number 5. Fetch. People often assume that fetch is a game only for retriever dogs
2:58
Well, that's not true at all. Hound dogs like beagles can do it too
3:01
Yes, it may require some extra practice, but it is totally doable
3:07
However, beagles are prone to running away, so do not try this outside and keep this game indoors
3:14
Start with an object like a ball or a frisbee. The best thing would be your beagle's favorite toy
3:20
Then throw it at a short distance and say, fetch. Most beagles will go running to grab their toy
3:26
If they don't, then try with a new colorful toy. Once your beagle grabs the toy, encourage them to bring that toy back to you
3:35
Give them a treat if they do. If he drops the toy and comes running to you, do not give him any reward and repeat the entire process
3:43
Practice this multiple times daily. Number six, sit pretty. This is my favorite trick because Groot looks super adorable while doing it Just look at him and it quite easy to teach Simply make your dog sit and get down on their level Bring the treat in front of their nose
4:02
and let them sniff it. Then, slowly lift the treat above their head. When they lift their
4:08
paws off the ground, say the word, sit pretty, and reward your beagle with a treat. Practice
4:15
this every day. Number 7. The Play Dead Trick. In this trick, you make a sound and your beagle
4:22
falls to the ground and plays dead. This is by far the most difficult trick, but it's the one
4:29
that will bring the most applause. For this trick, it is necessary that your beagle knows the rollover
4:35
trick, for which you can watch this video. Once your beagle knows it, ask them to do rollover
4:41
but give them the treat when they are lying on their side, and add a verbal cue, like bang bang
4:48
Once your beagle gets the hang of the verbal cue, start adding a shooting signal
4:53
Slowly increase the duration of playing dead. This trick definitely requires a lot of patience and training, but it's all worth it
