Dog training vocabulary

Question

I was just wondering what words people in Spanish speaking countries use to train their dogs. I really have no idea, but I'll give some guesses that are undoubtedly wrong. .

Sit! = ¡Siéntate!

Lie down! = ¡Acuéstete!

Roll over! = ¡Déte la vuelta!

I think it would be worth to make a flashcard. - LuisCache, Aug 19, 2011

Yes! I'll do it! ( with your answers, not mine!) - MLucie, Aug 19, 2011

Answer 1

Wow, great answer, Lucie.

Sit! = Siéntate!

Lie Down! = Échate!

Roll over! = Date la vuelta!

I don know the translation of these:

Dame la pata = ?

Traela! = Bring it (?)

Quieto! = Stay (?)

Dámelo(a) = Give it to me (?)

Saludos.

Maybe traela= fetch, dame la pata= shake (as in hands)? - Stadt, Aug 19, 2011

Thanks, Luis! Yes, your translations make sense to me. Now let's see what my dogs think about it! - MLucie, Aug 19, 2011

Quieto would translate as still, but in this case stay would work too. y damelo is give it to me - BellaMargarita, Aug 19, 2011

Great, maybe you will hava a bilingual pet, Lucie. - LuisCache, Aug 19, 2011

Yes, I think "shake" is right! And "fetch" too! - LuisCache, Aug 19, 2011

Answer 2

I wonder how you would say "heel".... talón??

¡Junto! ¡Lado! ¡Al pie! -- I believe these are all options.

Thanks Gintar! - MLucie, Aug 19, 2011

Answer 4

Really good question, if you have a dog. I do. The comand I use most frequently, but least successfully, is ' Come here!' Please tell me what Spanish dogs listen to. 'Venga?'

Ven!: Toby, ven! - LuisCache, Aug 19, 2011

También se dice: "Ven aquí!": Toby, ven aquí! - LuisCache, Aug 19, 2011

LoL annie! Mine won't "come here" either! ;-) - Gillygaloo, Aug 19, 2011

Answer 5

Up
Arriba

Also, I am teaching my dog Chaco to play dead. The command I give him in English is "Bam, Bam", then he lays on his side with his paws up like I shot him. How would you say this in Spanish?

Good question! My dog plays dead too. We will have to wait for an answer! - MLucie, Aug 19, 2011

Perhaps, "hazte el muerto". - gintar77, Aug 19, 2011
