Kobe’s roll over training starts with a few awkward tries, a lot of treat luring, and one very chilled-out Golden Retriever slowly figuring it out. In this dog training and pet trick challenge, the goal is simple: teach Kobe how to roll, even if he’d rather have his rewards hand-fed from his throne.

The session begins on the rug so he doesn’t slide around on the wooden floor, then moves through lying down, lowering his head, and guiding him into the shoulder and back position. With encouragement, a few accidental rolls, and some careful cleanup, Kobe starts linking the movement together and even begins responding to the cue “roll.” By the end, he’s doing a much cleaner roll over and clearly getting the hang of it.

This is part of a seven tricks in seven days dog training series, and it has the fun, patient feel of a positive reinforcement puppy training tutorial, even with an older dog. It’s a light, funny, and satisfying watch for anyone who enjoys dog tricks, Golden Retriever videos, and real-time pet training progress.

SEO: Perfect for searches like dog training, teach your dog to roll over, Golden Retriever tricks, positive reinforcement training, pet trick tutorial, and funny dog learning videos. Great for viewers who enjoy animal training, cute dog content, and step-by-step trick training with a relaxed, playful tone.

00:00This is a series where we'll be attempting to teach our dogs seven new tricks in seven days.
00:05It's currently day two and it's Kobe's time to shine.
00:09Kobe is a four-year-old golden retriever and probably the most chilled out dog.
00:13He doesn't want to work for his treats. He wants the treats hand-fed to him on his throne.
00:17But today, he's going to have to put in the groundwork for that reward and our goal, teach Kobe how
00:23to roll.
00:23Moki here actually already knows how to do it.
00:26So Kobe, you can't be getting outdone by your sister.
00:29All right, Kobe, how to roll. Oh, this is going to be fun.
00:33Firstly, we're going to try and make sure the trick is done on the rug so that he's able to
00:37actually roll
00:37because if he tries to do it on the wooden flooring, he's just going to be skating.
00:42Step one is we're going to get him to lie down and we're going to kind of try and lure
00:45the tree into his shoulder
00:47and move his head so we can just get into the position.
00:49Let's try it. He already knows down, so that's a start.
00:52Kobe, come, come, sit.
00:55Down. Good boy.
00:57So now we just want to try and lure his head.
00:59Lure your head.
01:01Yes.
01:02He doesn't quite like moving his head into this position to the side.
01:05So we're just going to make sure he's comfortable here before we go on to the next step.
01:10As you can tell, he's a lot more short out than Moki.
01:12Hopefully this will be easier.
01:13He's also a lot lazier though.
01:15Sorry, Kobe.
01:17Yes.
01:18Good boy.
01:19The next step is we're going to try and lure his head even more.
01:22Oh, he likes that side.
01:23You're more comfortable with that side?
01:25Yes.
01:25Good boy.
01:27Kobe naturally rolls to this side.
01:29So, we're going to actually start moving the tree down here.
01:34Why?
01:35And then...
01:37Yes!
01:38Good boy.
01:39That's not how you do it.
01:40Sometimes, because Kobe's quite chilled out, we are cheating a little bit.
01:43But sometimes a little persuasion roll.
01:45Don't do that with your dog though.
01:47This is just for Kobe.
01:47Kobe, come.
01:48The next step is to let him roll.
01:51Let me just get him used to being in this position again.
01:53But because we've switched the head, we want to get used to him putting his head into his shoulder
01:57and then going on to his back.
01:59Let's reset.
02:00Sit.
02:01Down.
02:03Yes.
02:04Yes.
02:05Good boy.
02:05Oh, my God, he did it.
02:07That was definitely my accident, but we take the hat.
02:09Good boy.
02:10Good boy.
02:11Yes.
02:11And lots of encouragement when they do it.
02:13Good boy.
02:15Yeah.
02:16Oh.
02:17Good boy.
02:19Come on, let's do it again.
02:20Let's do it again.
02:21Yeah.
02:21Sit.
02:22He's getting excited.
02:23He's getting into this.
02:24Down.
02:25Wait.
02:26Roll.
02:27Roll.
02:27Roll.
02:29Yes.
02:29Sit.
02:30Down.
02:32Roll.
02:33Roll.
02:35Yes.
02:35Come on, and then finish it.
02:37Yes.
02:37Good boy.
02:38Okay, so it's a bit disjointed at the moment, but he's actually starting to get it.
02:42You can see when he's going down, he's rolling pretty quickly.
02:45So we're just going to try and clean it up a little bit and start adding in the keyword,
02:48which is roll.
02:49Down.
02:50Roll.
02:53Yes.
02:54Good boy.
02:55And lots of encouragement.
02:56Yeah.
02:58Get his little tail.
03:00We've honestly been filming for about 15 minutes and he's already starting to get it.
03:03Oh, good boy.
03:05Four smartest dog breeds.
03:06Sit.
03:06Down.
03:07Roll.
03:08Roll.
03:09Finish it.
03:10Yes.
03:12Good boy.
03:13Yes.
03:14Good boy.
03:14And he goes over.
03:16Wait, his arms go in the air.
03:17It's so funny.
03:19Oh, sit.
03:20Showing off now, aren't you?
03:23Down.
03:24Roll.
03:26Roll.
03:27Roll.
03:27Roll.
03:28Roll.
03:28Roll.
03:29Yes.
03:29Good boy.
03:30Halfway.
03:31He's like...
03:32Just wanted to see you a POV, guys, because it's so adorable.
03:36Roll.
03:36Roll.
03:37Roll.
03:38Keep going.
03:39Keep going.
03:41Keep going.
03:41Keep going.
03:42Yes.
03:43Good boy.
03:44He kind of gets stuck about halfway, but it's good.
03:48Sit.
03:48Down.
03:49Roll.
03:49Roll.
03:50Keep going.
03:51Keep going.
03:51Keep going.
03:52Yes.
03:53Good boy.
03:54So now we're going to really try and tidy that up.
03:56Sit.
03:57Down.
03:58Let's see.
03:58Roll.
03:59Sit.
04:00Down.
04:01Roll.
04:02Roll.
04:02Keep rolling.
04:03Keep going.
04:04Guide him with the treat, Dad.
04:06All right.
04:06Come on.
04:07Too soon.
04:07Sit.
04:08Down.
04:10Roll.
04:12Come on.
04:13Finish.
04:13Finish.
04:13Finish.
04:14Come.
04:14Yes.
04:15So we're going to try and get it sort of a bit more clean and maybe like one motion.
04:19Down.
04:19Roll.
04:20Roll.
04:21Roll.
04:22Up.
04:23Yes.
04:24Good boy.
04:25He's good.
04:26Don't say up at the end.
04:27He'll get confused.
04:28Sit.
04:29Down.
04:30Roll.
04:30Roll.
04:32Yes.
04:33Good boy.
04:34That was a clean one.
04:35Good boy.
04:36That was a good one.
04:38Sit.
04:38Down.
04:39Roll.
04:40Roll.
04:41Roll.
04:42Yes.
04:43Good boy.
04:45Sit.
04:45Down.
04:46Roll.
04:48Roll.
04:50Roll.
04:52Good boy.
04:53Down.
04:54Roll.
04:55Roll.
04:56Roll.
04:58Yes.
04:59Good boy.
05:00Sit.
05:00Down.
05:02Roll.
05:03Roll.
05:04Yes.
05:05Good boy.
05:06Okay, so I've realized if I actually guide his head into his shoulder, it's a lot easier for him to
05:11fully roll over.
05:12He doesn't get stuck halfway.
05:13Down.
05:14Down.
05:15Good boy.
05:16Roll.
05:16Roll, roll, roll.
05:18Yes.
05:19Good boy.
05:20That was good.
05:21That was a good one, wasn't it?
05:23His face.
05:27All right, we're going to repeat this a few times.
05:29Just try and clean it up.
05:30Perfect it as much as possible.
05:32Let's do it.
05:33Roll.
05:34Yes.
05:35Yes, good boy.
05:37Roll.
05:39Down.
05:40Roll.
05:42Good boy.
05:44Roll.
05:46All right, I'm going to try and not guide his head as much.
05:49Roll.
05:51Good boy.
05:53You think you've got it now?
05:55All right, let's show him.
05:56Down.
05:57Roll.
06:00Yeah, good boy.
06:03All right, one more.
06:04Sit.
06:05Down.
06:07Roll.
06:09Roll.
06:12Well, guys, we've been filming for 20 minutes.
06:14I just got it.
06:15Just one more for good luck.
06:17Come on.
06:17Sit.
06:18Down.
06:20Roll.
06:25Well done, Cobes.
06:2620 minutes.
