Dog Trick: Nighty Night

My dog will wrap himself in a blanket on command. It is pretty cute when he does it right. Here is a video of him doing it, but Brandie and I aren’t the best when it comes to using the blackberry to create videos. I am going to try to get some more videos of Mr Digs doing tricks once i have a bit more time. Does anyone have any suggestions about what they might like to see?

This trick is actually a composite of three simpler tricks: lay down, roll over, hold it. Finally, we taught him to roll over with things in his mouth. Shaping is a very powerful tool to get your dog to do ridiculous things.
