Reply Contact I want my dog to hide whenever I say, "Hide!" and then come out when I say something like, "Clear." or something. Has anyone tried this, or know how to do this? Absolute dog lover.

  Re: Training your dog to Hide? Reply Contact You need to start by deciding what you want the sound "hide!" to mean to her.  What do you mean, specifially, by "hide"?  Just "move out of my sight"?   Or is it OTHER people you want her to hide from?  Is this just a fun trick?
