There are 12 tricks your pet can be taught; you can see them at the bottom of the screen if you click on the tricks icon. Click on one of the icons to command your pet to do the action; however they may not understand you.

Teaching your pet Tricks are essential if you want to enter them into Competitions. When you first get your puppy, you will have the Beginner's Book of Tricks in My Stuff, but there are also three other trick books you can buy from the Store.

Tricks are done by clicking or dragging the mouse over a certain part of your pet. After it has performed the action, a button will appear in the centre of the screen. Click it, and you will say the word for the trick it is doing. Then you need to give your pet a treat. If you don't have any, give it love instead. For the first trick you try, it will take your pet one go to learn it. The second trick needs two goes, the third needs three, and so on. Because of this, it is easier to teach your pet the hardest tricks first.

Some Tricks (such as Walk Around) require your pet to be standing sideways. To get your pet to turn left or right, click and drag the cursor along its head in the direction you want it to turn. Do this again if you want it to stand facing away from you.
