Third, the training of the Basset dog not moving

Fourth, Basset dog rolling training
After the Basset dog has learned the two actions of "lying down" and "not moving", it is very easy to order it to roll. First let it lie down, and then issue the command "roll", and while giving the command, hold its body and let it roll from side to side to express your meaning. In the early stage of training, you need to use your hands to help it do it a few more times. Later, you can use snacks to guide it to roll. Just put the snacks above its nose, arch your hands, and pass its body from the left to the right , so that it will roll 180 degrees with the snacks, remember to press and hold it and do it again, and you can encourage it with snacks and praise when you are done.
