Back when I was training folks on how to work with their dogs I had a mantra that “training should be fun for everyone”. While part of that was advice on how to engage their dogs with training games, the other piece of that was that the humans should be having fun with the training as well. Part of that was having cue words that made the person smile or laugh, as a way to help change our brain chemistry during difficult training scenarios.

So, what are your jokey funny cues for your puppers?

    • “Shut down” = go to bed
    • “Rest” = sit
    • “Root” = lay down
    • “Crash” = stop
    • “TLS” = shake
    • “Pew Pew” = play dead because it’s a laser gun
