2. don't do it!!!

Although cute, it's a bad habit a to teach a dog, they often become annoying, so just don't, resit the temptation of cuteness.
I am dog adjacent for 65 years, and I have had my share, and I get a bit nuts when friends or family try to teach one of the dogs this trick. Take the time and teach him where the property line is !

5. Is this satire?

Don't teach your dog to shake?

6. Gotta admit, teaching puppo how to stop at the property line has priority to shaking 'hands' for me ...

... And I've also gotta say: I've never seen a pup go around working the crowd by glad handing.

I think his point is that dumb pet tricks are demeaning to the specific animal. And honestly: that's true. We turn them from living beings to toys and simple minded amusement.
