Pretending to be dead is a means of self-protection used by animals to paralyze the enemy, but dogs seem to have forgotten this self-protection skill, so we can help dogs awaken this skill of escaping from danger.

I believe you have often seen the owner pointing his finger at the dog in life or on TV. After a "bang" or "pop" sound, the dog will fall down, as if it was shot by a gun, and lie on the ground pretending to be dead. at every turn. This is a very cute and funny show. When the dog hears the gunshot, it will fall to the ground and pretend to be dead. Even if we gently kick it, it will not get up, as if it is really dead, until the owner gives a command. It will get up.

Training a dog is neither difficult nor easy. The key is to be patient. Let’s take a look at how to train a dog to play dead!

1. Before you start training your dog to play dead, let him sit down in front of you obediently. Then he held his hand like a pistol and pointed it at its head, and then issued the "bang" command.

2. After giving the command, guide the dog to lie down, either on its side or on all fours. During this period, you must control the dog and not let it get up, and signal the dog "can't move".

3. After the dog lies quietly on the ground, you need to cover its eyes with your hands, keep it there for a few seconds, then remove your hands, and at the same time give the "get up" command. After completing this set of actions, the owner needs to reward the dog immediately.

4. The next step is to practice repeatedly until it lies down on its own after hearing the "bang" command, and then gets up again after hearing the "get up" command. At this point, the showman dog is officially raised!
