Teaching your dog to Bow

Here is the video demonstration of how I shape it using just a clicker with no lures or props. The second video shows how I use my arm to prevent the down as I lure a bow. For both your big goal is to prevent them from thinking the down is a part of this trick so be quick to reward and release before they fold into the down. For touch sensitive dogs you will probably find the shaping to be more comfortable for your dog, for dogs who tolerate touch well the lure can be a great way to jump start this trick to give them the idea of what you want.
