Hasanyone been able to teach their bunnies any new tricks? I'vetaught my little 7 week old girl how to come by saying "AnnaCome!". I've also managed to teach her to stand up on herhind legs and to walk forward a few steps. I'm even workingon teaching her to dance next! She seems to likeit.........she always cuddles close to me after our little trainingsessions. I'm curious to see if you guys have taught yourbunnies any funny little tricks, what they are and how you got yourbunnies to do them.
 
Haha, sounds adorable. I'm sure we'd love to know how you managed to get your girl to do that. Please inform. :sunshine:

So far my guy Tyr sometimes comes when he's called, but he'd probably just coming to me to shut me up.
 
I can make Pebbles pretend she's a guard dog......

Rainbows! :D
 
You taught Pebbles to do that? Frankly I'm scared for my life. I'd run from her faster than I would a Pit Bull.
 
ROFLOL - Pebbles is HILARIOUS!

Well - at least one of my rabbits knows how to pray....
 
Lop will :

Stand on her back legs when I make a coffee, asking where hers is.

Go to bed when I tell her.

Take treats from my mouth (all of them do that)

Jump in the shower, asking when is it her turn (when I have just of out of the shower myself)

Pose for a photo. As soon as she sees the camera, thats it. Miss Poser comes out to play!!

Loads more but cannot think.

Loo follows me out the door asking can she come out too.

Poppy likes to go for a bike ride with me. Run around pulling a plastic bag behind her.

Big Mama will jump back into the basket, when she wants to go home after walkies.

With All When I shake their treat tub, it doesn't matter where they are, they all come charging over to me.

Loads more but thats the basics that they do.
 
Loki only has one so far, and he taught it tohimself. He has a small wicker basket to chew on.He pokes his nose through it, stands up and lets it fall down to hisbelly, then kicks it off with his back feet.

Mocha jumps like Jackie Chan to get over barriers. She'lljump at the wall and bounce off of it to get over something reallyhigh. She also will follow a single oat in my hand anywhere.:D
 
I usedfood to motivate her at first. I would lie on me stomach afew feet from her, let her smell the treat and say "AnnaCome". As soon as she came to me, I would give her the treatand praise her. I would keep on doing the same thing movingfarther and farther away from her. Now she does not even needthe treats to come when I tell her to and she will even come to me whenshe is in a different room.

To get her to stand up onher back paws was easier. I just held the treat over her noseuntil she rose up on her hind legs. I taught her to walk bydoing the same thing and then moving the treatforward.
 
LOL...Pebbles is an impressive guard-bunny!

The only trick I can remember any of my rabbits doing was a littlewhite Polish I had once. Sarah was the offspring of one of my showbunnies, and she had developed a major infection in her eye when shewas around 3-4 months old. The vet gave me antibiotics to go along withthe line of treatment I was giving her (mild boric acid wash to bathethe area), and I took her into the house for the duration of hertreatment. While she was a house bunny I used to put a harness on her,as this was my dad's house, and she had a habit of going into placesshe shouldn't be (much to my father's dismay). Sarah hated thatharness, and the first time I put it on her she flopped emphaticallyonto her side and would NOT move an inch. You'd swear she'd been shotby a sniper (oh, the drama!). Well, the funny thing about it was, Idiscovered that if I happened to touch one particular spot on her sidewhile she was wearing the harness (and lying in her *I'm dead, can'tyou see? Leave me alone* state), she would roll over. I thought it wasquite cute actually, and began to touch that spot on a daily basis,prompting her to roll from one side to the other. She became soconditioned that long her eye had healed and the harness was no longerneeded, if I was to give her a treat of any kind, I'd say, 'Roll over'and gently touch her there, and she would do it...flop down and rollover like a dog. Must say, it confirmed to the neighbours that I was abit nutty...
 
I taught Apollo how to stand up and beg,Big mistake because he's impossible to say no too lmbo. He comes whenwe call him. The other stuff he taught himself but they are way cute.He makes masks out of paper bags. He dances with newspaper andcleans/dusts his cage with paper. He's a real character.

Who can resist a cute bunny with their wiggling noses and the way they stick their tongues out at you?
 
Apollo is so smart about it too. If Iturn my head away so I don't see him as I try to say no. He'll moveinto my line of sight and keep doing that until I give him a treat.

He has me very trained.:p
