For example in the Dogo trick: Spin – you are holding a treat in your hand in front of the dog’s nose. You move your hand with the food and your dog follows the food and turns around their axis.

Pros:

• Fast
• Flexible
• Easy for beginners.

Cons:

• Lures must be phased out early or dogs become dependent on the treat to do the trick.
• It requires little mental effort in problem-solving by the dog.
