So I wanted to make a list of tricks a pet can learn and I came up with a few ideas. These aren’t all the tricks one can learn nor are these the set definitions or postures for each, they are just what I could think of to describe. I tried to mix both normal tricks as well as more feral tricks for more wild pets. I feel like this has a good range of things that can be learned as well as some that could be made into games once the trick is learned. I would love to know if people have more ideas for me to add to this list as well! Hope these help someone!
Sneak – Crouch and crawl up to something or past something without it noticing
Crawl – Lay on belly and crawl, goes well with crawling under a gate or rope
Seek/Search – A toy is hidden and must find it, can use scents to help find object
Follow – When command given pet must follow behind Dom
Heel – Sit, Stand, Kneel, or Follow next to Dom, no pulling on leash or falling behind
Come – When command given pet goes to Dom
Sit – Put butt down on ground as you kneel with paws between knees, chest up and out and head up
Sit-Pretty – Go from “sit” position to lifting paws up to chest and holding, added points for panting beg
Lay – Lay on tummy or side, full body down against the ground, head can be up or on paws
Kneel – Shins on ground with thighs against them, feet pressed back against floor with butt on top, hands on knees, chest out and up and head up
Stay – When command is given pet must stay in spot till Dom says otherwise
Protect/Guard – pet must protect/guard spot or object Dom commands, pet has an upright position, arms and legs showing strength and chest out, head scanning for danger, small patrol circles
Paw – When command is given pet must put a paw in Dom’s hand or lift paw up
Spin – pet must spin in a circle, much like chasing ones tail
Roll-Over – pet must roll onto back with legs and arms up in air
Hunt – much like “seek/search” but with something live, hunt must chase other pet or Dom and catch them to win, fun for predator and pray pets
Fetch – Dom throws an object and pet must go get object and bring it back
Speak – pet must make sounds like barks, mews, howls, or whatever else pet sounds like
Present – pet must lower chest against floor and leave butt in the air, spread legs and leave self-exposed
Bare – pet is in the “roll-over” position but spreads legs to expose self
Beg – can be done 2 ways, pet can be in the “sit-pretty” position and pant and whine or pet can be in the “present” position and whine and pant, some Dom’s might want pet to say what they want done
Call – pet howls or makes loud noise, often a way to alert others
Play-Dead – pet rolls onto back or lays on side and pretends to be dead, can be dramatic if pet wants
Balance – Dom puts an object on top of pet’s head or nose and pet must balance it till Dom says
Wait – Dom can put favorite treat or toy down in front of pet after a said command, pet must hold position till Dom releases them to get the toy or treat
