trick training
Teaching clever behaviors
Trick training is teaching an animal to perform specific behaviors on command—shaking paws, rolling over, jumping through hoops.
The term is most common in dog training circles, distinguishing playful or impressive feats from basic obedience commands like sit and stay.
