So I wanted to make a list of tricks a pet can learn and I came up with a few ideas. These arenât all the tricks one can learn nor are these the set definitions or postures for each, they are just what I could think of to describe. I tried to mix both normal tricks as well as more feral tricks for more wild pets. I feel like this has a good range of things that can be learned as well as some that could be made into games once the trick is learned. I would love to know if people have more ideas for me to add to this list as well! Hope these help someone!
Sneak â Crouch and crawl up to something or past something without it noticing
Crawl â Lay on belly and crawl, goes well with crawling under a gate or rope
Seek/Search â A toy is hidden and must find it, can use scents to help find object
Follow â When command given pet must follow behind Dom
Heel â Sit, Stand, Kneel, or Follow next to Dom, no pulling on leash or falling behind
Come â When command given pet goes to Dom
