Niques Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 James had a good grasp of "roll" as a puppy but lost the ability when he was about one. He knows what he's meant to do but he completely lacks the momentum to actually make it all the way over, even when lured. So he just lies on his side flailing his paws. Any ideas on how to re-teach this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyliedelonge Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 i taught my last dog to roll over by having her lay on her side, and flipping her over saying "roll over" and she caught on really fast. i wouldnt do this with my current dog, hes too soft.

Weasels Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) I don't know but I love your description Edit - I notice this is from March, I wonder how Niques went with it? :) Edited July 25, 2012 by Weasels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suziwong66 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I used Kyra Sundance's method; using food to lure the dropped dog's nose to it's side, then further over to its back and it 'falls/rolls' over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
