You’ll start training a dog to do this dog trick by asking it to sit. If your dog isn’t able to sit on command, go back and work on the sit command before teaching it to beg. Once your dog is able to sit on command, proceed with the training.
1) With your dog in a sitting position, hold a treat at its nose, and give your pooch the command “beg.”
2) As your dog reaches to take the treat in its mouth, slowly raise the treat over its head so that your dog will have to reach up to get it. Pull it up until the dog is sitting on its hind end with the front paws off the floor and held in front in the begging position.
3) As soon as your dog is in the begging position, tell your dog “good” or click your clicker, and give it a treat.
4) Repeat these steps 5x each day for short training sessions. It won’t be long until your dog is begging on command (this usually takes 14 days to complete)
