LESSON 5 · Tricks That Impress

Stacking The Finale

Now chain them. Cue "speak" for a sharp bark, let the moment land, then cue "take a bow" so the dog folds into the bow.

Want a real closer? Build a short chain — spin, shake, speak, bow runs about twenty seconds and feels like a routine, not a list. Practice it until the handoffs disappear and you're barely cueing. Lead with your flashiest trick, but always finish on the bow — it's the beat every audience walks away remembering.
