Tricks are definitive part of our everyday life. Astor is very intelligent and he loves teaching new tricks so we always have so much fun. He knows about 200 tricks. I use clicker and shaping or targeting method. We teaching tricks every day and he gets almost all of his meal for tricks in clicker sessions. He really loves it so he must get a dose of tricks/clicking every day. I just love watching him how he always do the best he can, how fast he get ideas of tricks and how persevering he is all the time and yes, the best part is that we both enjoy. :)))
