It’s that time of year again: time for the HUGE Trick or Treat Giveaway Hop! This giveaway is a chance to discover new bloggers, learn new tricks, and win hundreds of dollars worth of prizes! Henry and I will be teaching you how to learn the “leg weave” trick — it looks a bit tough, but is relatively easy. Have fun and good luck!
Disclosure: This giveaway has been sponsored by all of the companies mentioned at the end of the post as well as by the participating bloggers.
How to Teach Your Dog to Leg Weave
1.) Start with your dog at your side.
Make sure you have a few extra delicious treats!
2.) Step Wide
Step as wide as you can with the leg farthest from your dog. Use a treat to lure your dog under your leg. Practice this a few times until your dog has the hang of it. You can use the command “weave” for this motion.
3.) Next Steps — Literally!
Once your dog has the hang of it, make a second wide step after the first and lure your dog through, using the command “weave” again. Try this two-step sequence a few times until your dog gets the hang of it.
4.) Repeat!
Repeat, gradually adding additional wide steps until your dog understands the sequence.
5.) Perfecting the Trick
Eventually, you will be able to only tell your dog to “weave” for the first step. As you perfect the command, you can make your steps less wide and praise only at the end of the total sequence. No matter your mastery level, always make sure you are praising your dog and keeping things fun and positive!

LOVE! I’m so going to learn this with Maggie and Orbit!!!
I really wish I could teach my border collie/kelpie mix to put his toys away and to roll over. (I know the roll over is a pretty basic one, but he just freaks out every time I try. He’s mastered a ton of cool tricks, but rolling over just seems too hard. I guess??)
I would love to teach my dog how to play dead, but looking at the other bloggers up above…I’d also have to go with “teach your dog to bow.” That would be the cutest!
