Teach your dog to move from one side of you to the other. Keeping your dog on a leash, and taking him or her for a walk is the first part of this trick. With a pocketful of treats, you should be able to teach your dog to switch sides in no time at all. Put your dog on your left and a treat in your right hand. Place your right hand behind your back to where your dog sees the treat and say “switch” as you pull the treat, with the dog following, to your right side. Repeat, and have your dog move to your left.
