Ever had a dog teach you a trick before?

So we’ve adopted a very good doggo and I’d already started some clicker training with her.

She seems to sit on command pretty well so thought I’d try moving on to lying down. I’m kneeling in front of her and already have her full attention with a couple of treats and a successful sit so tell her to lay down and gesture to the floor with treat in hand. Her study face can’t be hidden.

Instead she paws my hand and I’m thinking what on earth are you doing? You’re not scratching that out of my hand! Then it dawned on me and the instant I said shake she goes absolutely nuts.
