Start by holding a treat close to your dog's nose. Move your hand in a circular motion, encouraging them to follow. Reward them for turning around.
Repeat the motion, using a verbal cue like 'spin' as you guide your dog. Be patient and offer treats for each successful spin.
Practice the spin in both directions. Use consistent cues and rewards to reinforce the behavior. Keep training sessions short and positive.
Once your dog is spinning reliably, gradually phase out the treats and rely more on verbal praise. Practice in different locations to generalize the skill.
Remember, every dog learns at their own pace. Stay consistent, patient, and positive throughout the training process. Enjoy the bonding experience with your furry friend!
