Dog Behavior
If your dog exhibits a behavior you like give it a name and praise her for doing it. For example my shepherd mix started spinning around when I was getting her food ready. I started saying around and around and now she does it on command. Another thing she started doing is making the door stop go boing. I told her to hit it and now if she is near a doorstop that is exactly what she does. My pomeranian/chihuahua mix likes to roll on her back when she is playing with a toy. I started saying cute and now she will roll over on command when she is playing with a toy.
Training this way is very easy since you don't have to teach your dog the behavior. It only takes a couple of times saying the words associated with the behavior and she's got it. The behaviors are also self-reinforcing because most of the time it's what they like to do. My shepherd likes to feel the doorstop vibrate on her mouth. My pom mix looks pretty comfortable on her back. So watch for neat behaviors that can become tricks or a desirable action and give them a name. The interaction you have with your pet will make you will love her and enjoy her even more than you already do.

If your puppy won't sit still to be dried off after a bath turn it into a game. Grab a big thick towel and dry your puppy. She will grab at the towel and wrestle not knowing that you are accomplishing something. If she starts biting too hard or gets too rowdy move to another place to dry. All of this happens quickly and she will be dried off before you know it.
