Indy rolls over — huge milestone

By Catherine Toth Fox • April 13, 2012 • The Dog Dish

I have very low expectations when it comes to my dogs.

I’m just glad they know their names — though Sunny has mastered the art of ignoring me, especially when she was in trouble.

So getting them to do advanced moves like sitting and staying is a huge achievement to me.

And when Indy finally learned how to roll over — a trick I had envied other owners teaching their honor-roll dogs — I had to share it with the world.

World, this is Indy’s first real attempt at rolling over. Sit back and enjoy. Applause if you feel compelled.

Indy and Sunny have their own Facebook page: www.facebook.com/hapadogs. Follow them @hapadogshawaii.

    Hey Cat … lol … good job Indy!!! … although, I have to be a bit nitpicky … that was a little more like “follow the food and stumble into a rollover” … but still good!!! … now you just gotta get him to do it on command … without the doggie treat …

    … yeah, training a dog takes time and patience … it’s kinda like they’re training you too … haha!!! …

    … *sigh* … I miss my friends dog …

      Hey, it was hard enough getting him to do the other two — sit and lie down! — so rolling over, even with treats, is an accomplishment for me! 😀
