-your pup should know how to โSHAKE/PAWโ
Start with the regular command - reward after success, now cue โOTHER PAWโ so your pup learns that they need to utilize both paws- reward
-once your pup understands โPAWโ and โOTHER PAWโ start swapping out your hand for your feet
3๏ธโฃgoing onto step three may take a lot of patience and repetition to ensure your pup is comfortable - but once your pup understands to place their paws on your toes, slowly start waddling while continuously rewarding if your pup stays on your toes
4๏ธโฃstart adding some distance and move forward
