We\u2019ve broken it down for you into little pieces, and put up a video in our Zigzag puppy training app to make following along even easier. But of course, if you need even more explanations, our team of Puppy Training Experts will be happy to pick up the phone when you call.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You will need:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Soft small, smelly treats that your puppy is fond of. We know about the abundance of dog treats our dear pet stores can offer, so you might want to take a look at our article for our reviews of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/en-us\/blog\/puppy-health\/feeding\/best-healthy-puppy-training-treats\/\">the best puppy treats<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A soft comfortable surface for your puppy such as a rug or carpet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A naked puppy \u2013 no harness on for this one as it won\u2019t be comfortable for them!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lure your puppy into the down position. You should see them lean onto one side of their body \u2013 as if they were about to relax onto their side.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take the treat onto their nose and lure your puppy\u2019s head round to midway between bottom of their ribs and pelvis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use your marker word \u2018good\u2019 and reward them. Good job puppy!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this between 3 and 5 times.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now move the treat a little further towards your puppy\u2019s spine or as far as they can stretch without causing discomfort\/coming out of the down position. Did they do it? Yay! Say your marker word\u2019 good\u2019 and reward.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this three to five times.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take a break \u2013 you and your puppy have earned it! Practice this again later in the day and see if your puppy has started picking it up. Move on to the next step when they\u2019ve got this step and your puppy is happily following the treat.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro Tip:&nbsp;<\/strong>Some puppies will get this faster than others, as this is a shaping exercise where we are breaking the behavior down into tiny little steps towards the end goal, you can always break it down further. Go at your puppy\u2019s pace! You\u2019ll get there in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>With your puppy in the down position, bring the lure around to the previous step you got to. Now you\u2019re going to move it up a little so that their head comes up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use your marker word \u2018good\u2019 when you\u2019re up there and give your puppy the treat when their head is back in a neutral position.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this between three to five times then move on to Step 3.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nice job! Now we\u2019re going to try the full roll over \u2013 exciting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Do the same as in Step 2 but when you bring the lure up, slowly continue to move it past your puppy\u2019s body. They will slowly follow the lure so that they roll onto their back. Yes! Continue bringing it further around until they do a complete rollover<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use your marker word \u2018good\u2019 and give them the reward when their head is back in neutral position (and not pointing up towards the ceiling!).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this between 3 to 5 times, and then give your puppy a well-deserved break.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practice this again later on the same day and move onto the following step when your puppy is reliably following the food lure and doing a complete roll over.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Cute puppy looking at camera\" class=\"wp-image-2250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-scaled-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/mia-anderson-3m4lepvysME-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro Tips:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hands off!<\/strong>&nbsp;It can be really tempting to give your puppy a hand with the rollover with a little push to make sure they roll. Let\u2019s avoid this as we want to make sure your puppy is fully learning what to do with their body, and we don\u2019t want to undo all your good work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don\u2019t feed your puppy when they\u2019re upside down on their back! It\u2019s quite uncomfortable and they might choke\u2026no one wants that!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, it\u2019s time to remove the treat from our hands and start turning it into a hand signal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pretend to have a treat in your hand and then use the same hand action you were using in step 3 to get your puppy to do a full roll over.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When your puppy follows your hand and does a full roll over, say your marker word \u2018good\u2019, and reward them with the treat when your puppy is back the right way up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this between three to five times and then take a break<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Practice Step 4 a few times a day for several days until they\u2019ve got a good grasp of the hand signal.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro Tip:&nbsp;<\/strong>Rub some treats on your luring finger so the smell is on them if your puppy is getting stuck when you\u2019re not using the treat. Now you can fully embrace your sausage fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, it\u2019s time to add a verbal cue so when you say \u2018roll over\u2019 your puppy, indeed, rolls over and you are left feeling like a magician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Say the cue you are going to use for \u2018rollover\u2019. Could also be something like \u2018do the burrito\u2019.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Count to three in your head.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Give your hand signal so that your puppy rolls over.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mark it with your marker word \u2018good\u2019, and give your puppy the treat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat this between three to five times and then take a break.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Come back to it later that day and repeat.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, try doing it without the hand signal after \u2013 did your puppy roll over with only the magic words? Awesome!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"German Shepherd puppy lying down\" class=\"wp-image-2248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-scaled-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/zigzag.dog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/alexander-naglestad-HXJs7qJn0sI-unsplash-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful extra tips for teaching your puppy to roll over successfully<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Slow is always the way to go when teaching a puppy to roll over. It\u2019s the way for your puppy to progress stress-free, even if it means that the steps may take longer than we\u2019ve suggested. No problem!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Try mixing up the training so you\u2019re not always teaching them to roll over. Your puppy eventually needs to know that a \u2018down\u2019 isn\u2019t&nbsp;<em>always&nbsp;<\/em>followed by a rollover\u2026sometimes we\u2019re happy with them lying down.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How to teach a puppy to roll over is probably not best after a big meal \u2013 we don\u2019t want your puppy feeling a little queasy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Besides making them feel a little dizzy, the roll over can be quite physically challenging for some puppies, so let\u2019s keep the practice sessions rather short.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make sure your puppy is comfortable on the floor you\u2019re working on. A carpet, rug or yoga mat are all rather nice and cushiony while they\u2019re learning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Remember, it can simply be the case that the roll over is just not your puppy\u2019s preferred \u2018party trick\u2019. No worries, there are still plenty with which they can shine \u2013&nbsp; our Zigzag puppy training app has plenty for you to teach them. We can\u2019t all be good at the same things, right?&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching your puppy how to roll over is a fun trick that is also fantastic for their mental development.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But trick training is meant to be a fun thing \u2013 we don\u2019t put as much pressure on ourselves or our puppies to \u2018get it right\u2019. We don\u2019t want to be&nbsp;<em>those&nbsp;<\/em>people.
