Juno practicing our Trick of the Month: backing up! Teaching your dog to back up is not only a fun activity for your dog, but can also be helpful in daily life! Teaching this trick makes your dog more aware of their back legs. This trick is used to help dogs learn other agility skills, and can be used if you ever need your dog to back away from something potentially dangerous. Here at The Ruff House we focus on teaching your dog these fun and useful skills each month in a positive and engaging way! #ruffhousepdx #portland #pdxdogs
